About Windle Court
Windle Court combines residential care with dementia and physical disability support, alongside activities, community events and trips out. Its dedicated minibus service helps residents reach local attractions and appointments while remaining active and connected.
Before moving in, the team completes an assessment covering needs, preferences and routines. Residents can personalise rooms with familiar belongings, and families may take part in the move. Staff introduce new residents to people and activities at their own pace, while birthdays and special occasions can be celebrated at the home. Community events each month add regular opportunities for social connection beyond daily care.

Questions families ask
What assessment is needed before moving into Windle Court?
A team member visits before moving in to understand the person’s needs, preferences and routines, then ensures the right care and support are ready.
Can family and friends visit Windle Court?
Yes, visitors are always welcome. Visiting times should be discussed with the home in advance where possible so arrangements can be made for everyone.
Can residents bring valuable belongings to Windle Court?
They generally recommend leaving valuable or irreplaceable items at home because the home is not insured for loss or replacement of high-value belongings.
How much does Windle Court cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Windle Court for its weekly fee. As a guide, Essex council paid on average £1,085 a week for a residential care place for people aged 65 and over in 2024-2025, against £982 across England (GOV.UK adult social care finance report). People who pay for their own care are usually charged more than councils pay.
