Community welcomed for first look inside care home with its own cinema, hair salon and café

A care home in Cardiff is inviting the local community to take a sneak peek inside its new, purpose-built facilities.

Care UK’s Llys Herbert, on Ty-Draw Road, will be opening its doors to the community on Saturday 8^th July and Sunday 9^th July, from 10am-4pm, as well Saturday 15^th July, Sunday 16^th July, also from 10am-4pm.

Members of the community can book an appointment to meet the team and take a tour around the care home, which comes complete with its own cinema, hair salon and café. 

Once open, the home will provide full time residential and specialist dementia care, as well as short-term respite care for up to 75 residents. 

The layout of the building is configured into a series of four individual suites. Each suite has a number of en-suite bedrooms, as well as their own dining room and lounge area, allowing the creation of close-knit communities within the home, which makes it easier for residents to form new friendships and get to know each other.

Therisa Galazka, Home Manager at Llys Herbert, said: “We’re looking forward to opening the doors to Llys Herbert and giving the community a first look at our fantastic new home.

“We understand how important it is for people to feel at home in a care home, which is why we’re encouraging local people to come and take a look around the home’s facilities, meet the team, and find out more about how life in a Care UK home is special. 

“We’re incredibly proud of the warm and welcoming environment we’re creating and are looking forward to meeting the people of Cardiff and the surrounding areas, and giving them a taste of what life will be like at Llys Herbert!”

Designed to enable residents to live active and fulfilled lives, while also promoting independence, the new care home is set to open in July. The spacious home will allow for plenty of space for hobby and leisure activities, and will have its own bar, hair and beauty salon, cinema and coffee shop.
