ASHBERRY Healthcare, the award-winning care home providers behind Holmer Court, have taken ownership of The Weir nursing home in Swainshill, a grade II listed Georgian mansion nestled within the scenic Weir Gardens.

The 34-bed home, which will continue to be open to the public, is renowned for its long-standing care and community atmosphere.

The new ownership comes after David Kingham's retirement, following an impressive 30 years at the helm. Ashberry Healthcare, known for its high standards of care across their local homes, will bring their expertise to The Weir.

Nigel Denny, CEO of Ashberry Healthcare, expressed excitement about joining the local community, stating: “We look forward to building on the legacy of The Weir and fostering a sense of place, friendship, and belonging.”
