Sunday Times article about Middleton Hall Retirement Village

We were delighted to get national recognition for Middleton Hall Retirement Village in The Sunday Times on 6 February.

The article acknowledged the incredible vision of Executive Chair and Founder Trustee Jeremy Walford and the achievements of our wonderful teams in creating the community we are so proud of.

The forward-thinking small group living offered in our Middleton Oaks care service was a particular focus of the feature.

Responses from Sunday Times’ readers were very positive. Comments included “This model should be rolled out across the country”, “Absolutely inspirational. I want to punch the air” and “This is so heart-warming”.
