Start your search for care homes in the charming town of Newbury with our carefully chosen list of best-rated providers. This includes homes rated ‘Outstanding’ or ‘Good’ by the CQC (the highest tiers awarded), those with the best and most modern facilities, and those offering enjoyable activities.
We recommend looking for homes with dedicated activity coordinators. When you click on each care home listing, you’ll find detailed information about what’s on offer, such as arts and crafts, books and poetry clubs, or gardening. They will also organise outings into Newbury. Victoria Park and Greenham Common are perfect for a spot of fresh air, while Watermill Theatre puts on a variety of performances and offers senior discounts.
Newbury’s closest hospital is the West Berkshire Community Hospital, which provides a range of essential NHS services as well as specialist elderly care, physiotherapy and memory clinics. However, the main hospital serving Newbury would be the Royal Berkshire Hospital, located in Reading, just over a 30-minute drive away - so there are plenty of healthcare centres nearby.
There are plenty of organisations like Age UK Berkshire, which are very proactive in organising social clubs and befriending services, and Newbury U3A (University of the Third Age), which offers lifelong learning opportunities and social events for retirees.
