Excellent care given to our mum. We were welcomed as a family when Mum began her dementia journey and supported throughout.
Two years on, Mum sadly passed away but we were confident she had happy days in Bramwell Care Home and was well cared for.
Thank you.

The open day or summer fair was absolutely fantastic, the staff and management were brilliant with the clients and the atmosphere was electric - it felt that they were all one family. Nothin is too much trouble and the home is spotlessly clean. The staff are so friendly and welcoming and have never
seen out mother looking so happy.

The most amazing, caring staff who are always smiling and making sure my grandad has the best possible care.
As soon as I walked in and met the staff I knew this was the place for my grandad to stay to feel safe and comfortable.
The difference in him in such a short space of time is amazing and I
am so happy we found Bramwell Care Home.

My father has been at Bramwell for a year, and in that year, my experience of the home is excellent. The staff are very professional, caring, kind and well trained. His room is like home from home, and I feel very confident that he is receiving very good care and support. My father is always engaged
in activities in and outside the home, keeping him happy, safe and stimulated. The home communicates regularly on all aspects of his care and support.

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.

Job Title: Senior Care Team Leader

Joined: 2020

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.

My role has been both challenging and rewarding, providing me with opportunities to grow in character, decision-making, and in my interactions with staff, families, and others. 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.
