About Greenacres
Here at Greenacres, we provide residential care for adults in the heart of Grange-over-sands, a quietly beautiful part of Westmorland and Furness. Our setting is a place where people feel genuinely at home, and that matters enormously to us in everything we do. We support a range of individuals, including younger adults and those living with a learning disability or autism. We understand that each person who comes through our doors has their own story, their own rhythms, and their own way of experiencing the world. Our team takes the time to get to know every individual properly, building the kind of trust that good care actually depends on. Alongside our long term residential care, we also offer respite care for those who need a short break or whose families and carers need some time to rest. We know that respite care works best when it feels consistent and familiar rather than unsettling, so we put real thought into how we welcome people for shorter stays and make sure they feel comfortable from the outset. The town of Grange-over-sands gives us a wonderful setting, with access to fresh air, open landscapes, and a genuine sense of community. We make the most of where we are and encourage people to stay connected to the wider world around them in whatever way suits them best. We are registered with the Care Quality Commission and are committed to being open and transparent about the care we provide. We welcome questions from prospective residents and their families, and we are always happy to arrange a visit so that people can get a proper feel for Greenacres before making any decisions. If you would like to find out more, please do not hesitate to get in touch with our team directly.
