CHD Living transforms Surrey care home

Family-run care group CHD Living has acquired and transformed a care home in Woking, Surrey.

The award-winning group has acquired the former Avens Court site, which closed its doors after entering special measures with the CQC. It will re-open this autumn as Willow Grange Care Home, following an extensive redesign. Working closely with Surrey Fire, CHD Living has transformed the building into a fully compliant, modern care setting designed to meet the highest standards of safety, comfort, and wellbeing.

Willow Grange Care Home will offer specialist residential, respite, and dementia care, incorporating the latest care innovations.

Shaleeza Hasham, commercial director at CHD Living, said: “For us, this was about doing the right thing for the community. When a care home closes, it can have a huge impact on local families and on the wider health system. By acquiring and redeveloping the Avens Court site, we’ve been able to restore 41 vital care beds and ensure that this space continues to support the people of Woking. We’re proud to be giving the home a fresh start, whilst creating much needed local jobs in the area."
