Braintree, is a small market town that enjoys a weekly market and we are within a short walk of shops, cafes, a church and beautiful public gardens.
Life at Bradbury House has a real community feel, a home from home. Our community offers an inviting dining area, where our residents enjoy home-cooked meals and if they wish to do so they can help themselves to a drink at the bar. When the sun is shining residents can relax on the front patio and even if it’s raining residents can have some quiet time listening to forest music whilst sitting in the indoor garden.

Reviews
The relationships between the staff and the residents were clearly genuinely friendly and full of fun and good humour. It was also easy to see that the staff put in a lot of effort to make the home, well, homely!
The coffee was also excellent, and I appreciated the opportunity to enjoy it while being shown around, and introduced to residents who were in good spirits.
A smaller home, but still wonderful!
Bradbury isn’t just a care home it’s a Family that makes you feel welcome as soon as you enter the building.
Keep being great Bradbury 👏🏻

Meet the Manager
Sheree is our Home Manager at Bradbury House Care Home. Here’s a little bit more about her role at the home in her own words:
“I have worked in the care sector for 28 years, starting as a Night Care Assistant in a nursing home. I have worked as a Care Assistant, then Senior Care Assistant in various residential, nursing and dementia homes. I joined Bradbury House 12 years ago and was a Senior Care Assistant for six years, also covering as Head Chef during this time. I then progressed to Deputy Home Manager for six years and at the end of July 2023 I became the Home Manager.
I enjoy my job because it is fun! I love talking and listening to our residents about their life before coming to live at Bradbury House. I love bringing a fun element to their day by being a little crazy! I feel happy knowing that I make our residents feel safe and confident knowing that their best interests are my priority.
I love leading my team and encouraging their ideas, no matter how big or small, to improve and enhance our residents stay at our home. I feel that I have a positive impact and that I motivate others and believe that my team enjoy coming to work at Bradbury House.”
