Care Home Wins Award after Training in Montessori for Dementia and Ageing

Care home Foxburrow Grange in Colchester has won “Best Care Team” award in the Great British Care Awards for several years in a row and cited Montessori for Dementia and Ageing training with us as a key part of their success.

Their Wellbeing Coordinator, Emma Kiss has also been nominated in this year’s Great British Care Awards as East of England Regional Finalist in the Activity Organiser Category.

The people under their care may have lost the ability to take care of themselves, but the team sees beyond that prognosis and actively supports them to become more independent and enjoying life.

The Best Care Team award recognises a team with a shared vision that demonstrates a commitment to dignity and privacy for clients.

“Since applying the Montessori method for people with dementia and ageing, the wing, the residents and the home as a whole have gone from strength to strength.”
