A warm welcome to Farnham Common House

Located in the heart of Farnham Common, with convenient links to Slough, the M25 and M40, Farnham Common House is a warm and welcoming care home offering high-quality residential and dementia care. Set within a peaceful, leafy neighbourhood, the home combines a safe and comfortable environment with compassionate, person-centred support tailored to individual needs.

Specialist dementia and residential care

Our experienced team delivers tailored, round-the-clock support for older people, including those living with dementia and those needing short-term respite care. Each resident has their own personal care plan, created with their input and regularly reviewed to adapt to changing needs.

We treat every person with dignity, kindness and respect — because everyone deserves to live with choice and purpose.

A warm, purpose-built care home

Farnham Common House is a spacious, modern care home designed with older people in mind. With 50 en-suite rooms across four wings, each with their own communal areas, residents can enjoy both privacy and a strong sense of community.

There’s always something happening - from arts and crafts and cookery sessions to singalongs, games and our popular book club. Our large activity room hosts regular events, and quieter lounges offer space to relax or socialise. Outside, the garden features attractive archways, raised flower beds and space to enjoy the sunshine or a bit of gardening.

A place to belong and thrive

We believe that a fulfilling life is built on meaningful moments - whether it’s sharing a meal, joining a group activity or walking through the garden. We make time to get to know each person, their story and their preferences, so we can create a daily routine that feels right for them.

From the freshly cooked food served each day to the personal touches residents bring to their rooms, our home is a place where people feel truly at home.

For people, not profit

As part of The Orders of St John Care Trust, we’re proud to be a charitable, not-for-profit provider. We reinvest straight back into our care homes - whether that’s new equipment, specialist training or improving resident activities and environments.

It’s our way of keeping the focus where it belongs; on the people who live and work here.

Activities

Whether it’s wet or dry outside, we at OSJCT feel that activities are essential in providing the best caring environment to live in.

Hobbies don’t simply stop when living with us at Farnham Common House. We have a dedicated Activities Co-ordinator who works closely with our residents to create a programme of fulfilling activities and events, tailored around each resident’s requests, hobbies and interests. The programme of events and activities provide a source of fun and laughter, to help each resident live their life to the full and make new friendships.

We are also fortunate to have the support of many volunteers of all ages from the local community, strengthening our links to this thriving market town. Here is a sample of activities on offer:

Trips to garden centres, cafés, pub’s, sporting events, National Trust parks, wildlife parks, aquariums and museums
Visit from Pets as Therapy Dogs
Exercise and wellness activities, for example Seated Yoga, Zumba
Fun activities with the local toddler and nursery group
Board game competitions and quizzes

With so many well-being activities for body and mind on offer, we also recognise that everyone needs some personal space for relaxation and mindfulness for personal reflection. The cosy lounges offer an opportunity for some quiet time or to host family and friends.

And that’s not all:

We’ve had silent discos, hoe downs, Chinese banquets, Oscar parties and so much more.

Many of the activities feature Reminiscence Therapy to aid those living with Dementia to remember events, people and places using sight, touch, taste, smell and sound.

Food

The talented chef and kitchen team prepare tasty, home-cooked meals on site daily from our own kitchens. We source quality produce for our excellent breakfast, lunch and dinner menus. All-day dining is available for lighter meals and snacks and all dishes are carefully balanced to get the best nutritional value and cater for individual dietary requirements and preferences.

Seasonal produce is chosen whenever possible and of course, relatives and friends are always welcome to join us. The menus change daily and the kettle is always on. Our chef bakes every day so there is always a fresh cake for residents, friends and families to enjoy.

Each of the households has their own small kitchen dining room where residents can take their meals if they wish. Residents are also encouraged to help prepare their own food and to make snacks whenever they choose.
