About Balcombe Care Homes

Our history is full of memorable events, starting with the opening of our first home in 1985. Since then, changes large and small have defined our progress and helped to make Balcombe Care Homes Limited the organisation that we are today. Over the past 20 years, we have earned a proud reputation for providing exceptional standards of care and for investing in continual expansion, through the acquisition of new care homes and the development of existing properties within our portfolio.

Despite our growth, all these developments have been balanced with the organisation's devotion to ensuring that we continue to provide the same level of personal service that we did when we first started all those years ago.
