Manager's notes:Byron Court is well located to take advantage of the main town centre shops which include many of the traditional high street chains, including Marks & Spencer, which sit splendidly alongside the wide choice of smaller retailers that adorn the main shopping area. There is also a twice weekly market. Tranport facilities in the area are also excellent with the main line rail station and the bus station both within 600 yards of Byron Court.
As well as spacious self-contained apartments, the communal facilities at Byron Court include a lounge furnished to the standard of a quality hotel, a function room and a licensed restaurant with waitress service where a substantial mid-day meal is availableevery day at a modest cost.
In addition to an Estate Manager there is a team of assistant Estate Managers who between them provide 24 hour cover. An appointed Care Agency provides 1 hour's domestic help a week for the residents in each apartment, the cost of which is included in the service charge. Additional domestic help can be purchased as required. Whilst the normal duties of staff to not include personal or nursing care, residents or their appointed representatives can arrange appropriate services with the appointed Care Agency yailored to individual needs, the cost of which is met by the individual.
