Welcome to Eastham. Situated in Woodham Ferrers in Essex, our 22-bed residential and dementia care home offers person-centred care and an established community for our residents to thrive. At Eastham, we place a real emphasis on celebrating the lives of each and every one of our residents.
Experience our spacious living areas and excellent facilities and features, including beautifully furnished bedrooms, a cosy café, relaxing lounges, and minibus service. Our dedicated team provides residents with a rich and engaging lifestyle – as well as a comfortable and welcoming care home environment in which to live.
At Eastham care home, health and wellbeing is a top priority. Our friendly and professional team offers diverse types of care to meet a variety of needs, including residential care, dementia care and respite care.
My journey into care has been deeply rewarding and transformative. After 15 years in the police force, I transitioned to health and social care in 2011, starting as a carer at Eastham.
What I love about this field is the opportunity for growth – I progressed to care team leader, then gained valuable experience as a deputy manager at another Runwood home for three years before returning to Eastham as home manager in 2024.
I’m incredibly grateful that Runwood Homes supported me through my social work degree, which I completed last year. Now, as both a registered home manager and a qualified, registered social worker, I feel equipped to make a real difference in people’s lives. Every step of this journey has taught me something new about compassion, leadership, and the importance of quality care.
