The entire team, regardless of position here, go above and beyond to ensure my Mum, Uncle and Auntie receive the best possible care. Their attention to detail is second to none, absolutely nothing is too much trouble. It truly is a 'home from home' that gives family members such peace of mind knowing

My father went to live in Timkin Grange Care home in August 2023 at the age of 95. From the moment he moved, his complicated needs were met with so much kindness and empathy and Dad was treated with respect and dignity always.
This All-Star Team are amazing in the way they connect with the residents
despite the daily pressure and high demand of everyone's needs. I have deep respect for you all and I am eternally grateful to you for your ongoing support to all of our family and understanding during a very difficult time. I know that he appreciated your care and patience, although he probably didn't think to say so due to his mental illness. Thank you so much.

Dad was there for a couple of years, the carers who looked after him did a fantastic job they made him feel at home there. The management team was just as good, they couldn't have been more helpful. Towards the end of his life the whole team bent over backwards to make him, myself and the family comfortable.
Thank you to the Timken team.

Almost immediately after Mum arrived the staff got a smile out of her. The staff at Timken Grange are amazing, and extremely well trained. I appreciated the communication particularly as I live at least 2 hours away from Northampton. On the day mum passed a phone call in the morning, the message clear
and professional, had me making my way to Timken Grange in time along with two of my daughters to be with Mum as she passed, a promise I had made to her if I possibly could. I can never thank the carer who made that call enough. A thoroughly lovely touch was the comfort box Timken Grange placed in Mum's room for the use of the family after a palliative diagnosis, it was so appreciated. I have no hesitation in recommending Timken Grange, the registered care manager is enthusiastic, full of energy and has demonstrable knowledge. Her values clearly filter down through the troops and this created absolute confidence that our mum was in a safe and positive environment.

Just wanted to say that the care you offered not only to my father in his final weeks but us his children too was outstanding. We can not thank you enough for the care you gave him in the past two years after his dementia sadly made living at home impossible. You truly made it his home and we were also
welcomed with open arms including the family pets! All staff were absolutely superb in their interactions with Dad and showed great respect and consideration. Nothing was ever too much trouble and we can not fault the level of communication from the home on any matters relating to Dad. Sadly the final two weeks we saw your staff shift up another gear in their care especially when it became clear his time was very near. I am only too pleased that Dad was able to pass with not only your staff but also us at his bedside. This gave great comfort to us both and we were under no illusion that the home staff were as affected by his death. I would have no doubt in recommending Timken Grange.

Reply from Louise Mulvany, Home Manager at Timken Grange

Thank you for leaving such a wonderful review, I know we are all feeling the loss of your dad every day. We really loved him so much but then who couldn't, that cheeky smile and wicked sense of humour (hiding from the district nurses) he brought such joy to us all every day and is still brought up in daily conversation with smiles and laughter. It was an absolute honour to have cared for him over the last 2 years and we hope that you will come back and visit your Timken family again soon.

My stepfather died this morning whilst I was on my way to see him. Hearing that he was not on his own when he died was extremely comforting. He died in his sleep with a Senior Carer holding his hand and the nurse outside the room. I'm so aware that this is not the case for many care home residents and
feel quite overwhelmed by the care, love and commitment shown by the Timken Grange team.
Thank you on his behalf and from myself. We were so lucky to find you.

The care given to my friend was amazing. My friend was only at the care home for a short time, she had dementia. Unfortunately, my friend became unwell and was admitted to hospital for a couple of weeks. My friend returned to Timken Grange but sadly, passed away. In her last few days, the staff treated
my friend with dignity, care and kindness, as I spent a lot of time with my friend, the support shown to me throughout was wonderful.
A great team. Thank you.

My dad moved into Timken Grange at the end of August 2023, he has dementia. The staff are kind, and respectful and have taken the time to get to know him and have supported us. Any queries and concerns have been dealt with promptly. All aspects of his care have been carefully managed, we have been kept
up to date with any changes and the record keeping is meticulous. My dad was poorly in the autumn, the senior carers always took my calls, kept me updated and even called me to let me know when he was having a good day, so reassuring. There's always an activity going on, or a visit out and when my dad was feeling better he joined the trip to the Gaydon Motor Museum and had a good time. The home is well designed, the building is easy to navigate, light, airy and well maintained. Timken Grange is led from the top, all the departments put the residents first. I feel very fortunate a room was available here when we needed it.

Reply from Louise Mulvany, Home Manager at Timken Grange

Thank you so much for your kind review, it has been lovely getting to know your dad and you as a family. Your dad is very loved by the team. We will continue to support you all through your family journey.

Timken Grange staff provide the utmost professional care for my mother who is suffering from Parkinson’s. The staff are very patient and I cannot praise them more. My mother, who at times can get very confused, is well cared for and encouraged to take part in the numerous activities and visits on offer.
This was recently demonstrated in the Christmas fun afternoon where residents, staff and family enjoyed live music, mince pies and Christmas activities. Before she became too frail mum was an excellent cake maker and sugar crafter. The home has taken the time to use her original recipe for a Christmas cake and help her make and decorate it in her traditional way. The manager and all the staff are friendly and welcoming, always finding the time to answer any questions or concerns we may have. Thank you.

Reply from Louise Mulvany, Home Manager at Timken Grange

Thank you for your lovely review, your mother is a joy to care for, we love to find person-centred activities to do with our residents and helping mum make her traditional Christmas cake for a competition was wonderful, coming 3rd is a testament to the amazing baker she has always been.

From the first point of contact, Timken appeared professional, good communication, well run and a generally lovely home. Appealing! And they have exceeded my expectations. Was I happy for Mum to go there? Yes, and I would recommend them.
Since Mum went in, she has settled well, been well monitored
and has made some socialising improvements. The same goes for food intake and general well-being, which are all positive. I know, albeit difficult that I have made the right decision. Thank you, team Timken.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.858)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.858) out of 10 for Timken Grange 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 32 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 32 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 4.858 for Timken Grange is calculated as follows: ( (328 Excellents x 5) + (50 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 380 Ratings = 4.858

  • 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 Timken Grange is based on 32 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 66 registered maximum number of service users is 13.2, which has been reached with 32 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.

Job Title: Home Manager

Joined: 2019

My name is Louise, I have four grown-up children and four grandsons, I have worked in the health and social care sector for 40 years,


I started my care journey when I was in the Girl Guides working towards my care badge, every weekend I would go to the local hospital and sit with the elderly patients and assist them with eating, drinking and read to them, after I earned my badge I continued to go every weekend until I was old enough to get a job in the care sector.


I started as a carer and have worked my way up. Since arriving at Timken Grange nearly seven years ago to take up a role as a senior carer I have progressed to medication manager, deputy manager, care manager and now home manager.


I am passionate about the care we provide, and our bespoke approach to each individual care needs which is provided by our fully trained care team. Whilst already having various qualifications within the sector, I am currently studying for a BSc Honours in Health and Social Care. I am excited to be utilising my skills and being able to further my career.


Being able to support my team, creating a great place to work and helping them embark on their own careers in care is important to me. I am driven by my passion for the elderly and providing exceptional care wherever I go. I am truly dedicated to the improvement and advancement of care techniques and delivering these in an environment that puts our residents at ease, thus allowing them to have their freedom and enabling them to live an enriched life.

The way I see it is we will all hopefully get to old age at some point, and will then all need help and assistance, and I think it is lovely to see the residents continue to enjoy and have a good quality of life.


I am currently very happy in my position as Business Support Manager, but if ever there was a position that came up to be a Region Business Support Manager, I would be interested.
