Chater Lodge Care Home in Stamford

Our home is set in the picturesque village of Ketton, where we are at the heart of its community life, just a short drive from the beautiful and historic market town of Stamford. Both Ketton and Stamford are easily accessible from the A1 and A43 for friends and family looking to visit the home.

At Chater Lodge, we provide high quality residential care and support for people living with dementia. Alongside this, we offer respite services to provide relief for carers or a break from day-to-day life. Our team of highly-qualified and dedicated staff pride themselves on their ability to focus on the individual needs of residents with a tailored care plan for each person.

Dementia Care

Chater Lodge has a dedicated Memory Lane Community that provides a safe, homely environment for people living with dementia, which has been designed following these guidelines ensuring the care we provide supports residents’ freedom of choice. We aim to maintain their life-skills, improving their self-esteem and helping them to maintain and develop their independence while they are living with us.

Staff undertake specialist dementia care training developed by our team of Dementia Care Specialists and academic partners, the Centre for Dementia Research at Leeds Beckett University. Together they ensure our training programmes are informed by the very latest thinking. We ensure that the people we support feel comfortable and safe in their surrounding environment, helping ensure they live life with dementia to the full.

Choosing a care home for a loved one or friend who may be experiencing dementia can be difficult and we have created a guide to showcase how we ‘Enrich the lives of people living with dementia’ in our care home.

Our passion for our work can be seen in our staff attitudes, our hospitality and our varied social calendar: we are always ready to celebrate any occasion. Our hospitality includes first class dining, with all meals cooked on the premises using locally produced, fresh ingredients.

We warmly welcome visitors, so if you would like to arrange a visit to our home, or to find out more about Chater Lodge, please contact us and join us for a cup of tea or coffee.

General Manager

Hello. My name is Zoe and I am the General Manager at Chater Lodge Care Home.

I have worked in care settings since leaving school and have worked my way up from apprentice to my current management position. I joined Chater House in 2012 and was soon promoted to Deputy Manager, and then again to General Manager in 2017. I have nearly completed an NVQ Level 5 in Leadership and Management. I take pride in ensuring the whole team provides high quality care to all our residents and I enjoy making people laugh and feeling loved. I like taking on new challenges and learning all the time through new experiences and training. Outside of work I like to spend my time keeping fit, walking my dogs and sitting in front of a fire reading about my favourite subject - Greek myths.
