A BRADFORD care home has been named as one of the top 20 in the region.

Anchor’s Ashcroft care home, on Kelvin Way in Undercliffe, is part of the select group by a national care reviewer.

The carehome.co.uk Top 20 Care Home Awards are based on more than 90,000 reviews over the past two years from residents as well as their friends and family.

Ashcroft currently holds a rating of 9.9 and 10 out of 10 on the website.

Emma Ciccone, manager of Anchor’s Ashcroft care home, said: "I’ve got such a fantastic team, so I’m not surprised at all but it’s wonderful that all their hard work has been recognised.

“For all of us at Anchor’s Ashcroft, our main aim is building genuine connections and relationships with our residents and their loved ones. I think that’s a large part of why we’ve received lots of good reviews."

Resident Eline Jackson, who has lived at Ashcroft for 18 months, said: “I’m not surprised in the least by the news, Ashcroft is an absolutely smashing place to live.

“Emma and her team are really great. They’ve always made sure we’re well looked after, having fun and enjoying ourselves.”
