From the manager

“A warm welcome to Harleston House, our Outstanding care home in Lowestoft. I support families like yours everyday. I know that choosing a care home can feel, well, a bit scary. That’s why, at Greensleeves Care we work to make moving into care less daunting. I’m excited to show you what Harleston House has to offer. It all starts with our 6-week no-obligation trial, so you get to try before committing longer term. Our approach to care means you get skill with a smile, a nice cup of tea before you even realise you want one, and a joke when you need it. We think that’s all part of good caring. Being a charity means our focus is on people, not pockets. And with our Home for Life Commitment, you’ll never be asked to leave if your funds run out. Because that’s part of good caring too. We are here to answer all your questions and help you make a confident and empowering care choice. Give us a call today to discuss your needs or plan your visit. I involve residents as much as they wish in making decisions in all areas of their home. My passion, drive and commitment to Harleston is well supported by all my team, residents and relatives involved with Harleston House. My door is always open and myself, deputy and team always have time to listen.”
