Sir William Harpur House
A cosy suburban Independent Living with Care scheme with a welcoming communal lounge and dining room.
Sir William Harpur House is in a quiet neighbourhood in Brickhill, Bedford. There is a range of shops, including a post office and supermarket, a short walk away, plus easy access to buses into Bedford. Brickhill Community Centre is just across the road, and this adds to the sense of being part of a close-knit community.
We have a popular on-site restaurant, where you can enjoy home-cooked meals, in a dining room that opens out onto a patio area and garden. And with its own hair salon, you don’t even need to leave the scheme to have a haircut. You also have the option to take part in a variety
of regular activities including a takeaway night, church service and coffee mornings.
”I love it here, it’s the best place I could be – I like the company and I feel safe. When I lived alone, I had falls and if someone knocked at the door, I was worried about who it might be – I was scared to be on my own.
When I moved in a year ago, I felt comfortable about mingling with everyone straight away. I really enjoy the activities and we all get a Chinese takeaway every six weeks, which everyone looks forward to.”
