My aunt passed away on 11th October 2024 but until the very end she was taken care of by the staff at Bramwell at the highest possible level. Such care and compassion for my aunt was so welcome at a very difficult time. It was if the staff attending my aunt were dealing with a member of their own family.
I cannot praise all the staff and management for the way that they way they treated my aunt in all the time she was in their care. When I visited my aunt she was always clean and her room clean and tidy. Throughout her stay and at her passing she was shown dignity and the greatest of respect.
Thank you to everyone at Bramwell Care Home you deserve 5 stars in every respect.

We researched and visited numerous care homes, Bramwell Care Home shone out from the very start with the others nowhere near. It has an outstanding and lovely care team at every level. It is the first time in over four years I am not extremely stressed and worried about my lovely mum. It is fantastic
they have weekly outings in addition to the daily activities. Thank you to the whole team for their ongoing care.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.917)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.917) out of 10 for Bramwell Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 94 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 93 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Care Home is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.917 for Bramwell Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (1055 Excellents x 5) + (53 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) + (6 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 1121 Ratings = 4.917

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Bramwell Care Home is based on 93 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • ii) 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the registered maximum number of service users in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home registered for a maximum of 50 service users has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 93 registered maximum number of service users is 18.6, which has been reached with 93 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.

Kat Furnell

Job Title: Receptionist

Joined: 2024

I'm Kat. I have been a Receptionist at Bramwell for the past 6 months, and I truly enjoy being part of this close-knit and supportive team. I feel incredibly productive and appreciated in my role, and I’ve quickly become familiar with the home’s daily operations. What I love most about working at Bramwell is the sense of family—getting to know both the residents and their families has been a rewarding experience. I'm proud to be part of such a successful and well-managed home, where we all work together to provide the best care.


In my free time, I enjoy playing the kalimba, and I’ve mastered the iconic "Darude Sandstorm" on it—it's a surprisingly useful skill! I also have a background in archery, where I used to compete. My passion for history is reflected in my studies of mediaeval and Russian history, and when I’m unwinding, you’ll often find me playing the guitar or diving into a game of Skyrim.

I am Thoufeek Backer, and I have been a dedicated member of the team at Bramwell for the past four years. Starting my career as a care assistant, I quickly gained the trust and belief of my manager, which led to my promotion to Senior Care Team Leader. In my role, I assist with the day-to-day running of the home, and I thrive on the challenge and responsibility that come with it. I enjoy pushing myself to grow and learn more, and the strong teamwork around me helps me achieve my goals.


I like to keep the atmosphere light-hearted, often joking with the team—though sometimes I end up in a little bit of trouble for it! Outside of work, I enjoy reading books, exploring new experiences, and spending quality time playing with my son.

I am passionate about making a meaningful difference in people's lives, and I take pride in my work.


As a Dementia Champion, I have been able to lead initiatives that focus on improving care and supporting residents. I am especially proud of achieving the Excellence in Residence Experiences 2024 award, which highlights the impact of our work. However, I do feel disappointed at times when I fail to execute as well as I’d like, but I use it as motivation to improve.


In my personal time, I enjoy reading, watching documentaries, and helping vulnerable people in any way I can.
