About The Martlets
The Martlets provides residential and dementia care for older people, with respite stays also available through its wider care offering. The purpose-built home opened in 2009 in East Preston and is close to local shops and amenities, giving residents a modern setting for longer-term support or a short break.
Its care approach is person-centred, with families encouraged to stay connected, informed and involved in the life of their loved one. The wider organisation also provides support for more complex needs, including mental health, acquired brain injuries and learning disabilities, although the home’s documented local offer centres on residential and dementia care. Residential and dementia care gives families a clear starting point when considering ongoing support or respite.
