Living Developments

Who are we?

Living Developments is a group of private residential care homes with locations in Cumbria, Merseyside and Lancashire. Our family owned and run care group is operated by the management team and the homes’ individual Registered Managers – each of whom is supported by a full complement of qualified staff. Our Managers and staff are encouraged to stay ahead of the times; constantly undergoing the latest training to ensure best practices are followed in in each home.

As Living Developments is a small family of three care homes we work closely together, creating a culture of participation where staff share their experiences and help each other maintain supportive, caring environments for our residents. We aim to give our residents the benefit of a wider view of how residential care can truly be ‘home’ for people to enjoy life in a supportive and safe environment.

What people say about us...

My husband is a resident and I couldn't be any more grateful for the help and support provided to him. The home is beautiful and clean. The staff are wonderful and friendly and take great care of my husband.

The Willows

Wife of Resident

I cant speak highly enough of all the staff – from the carers, the cooks, cleaners and management. Fantastic residential care home. Staff are kind and caring, working to a high standard where the residents needs always come first. The home provides proper care not just attending to basic needs. Residents have a great social life both inside the home and outside making the most of the local facilities.

The Millfield

Daughter of Resident

Lovely home, friendly & helpful staff, just the right amount of informality. Staff turnover is very low which in itself speaks volumes. Lots going on for residents to join in if they wish, and the rooms & grounds are excellent. Mum settled quite quickly & is now quite happy at The Willows. Very happy with the choice we've made. Would recommend

I cannot praise the management and staff enough. She was made so welcome and felt safe, cared for and happy during the time she spent there. Everyone was friendly and helpful not only to mum but to the family and mums little dog who visited her most days. Highly recommended, thank you to everyone for the care you showed to my mum.

My mother moved into The Willows in October 2024 and has now been in for a month. The staff and management have been excellent and extremely caring and professional. They have gone above and beyond to help my mother settle into her new home. I can't recommend The Willows highly enough.
