Charlie Ratchford Court celebrates important milestone

In April 2021, Charlie Ratchford Court celebrated an important milestone as it prepared to open its doors to the first residents.

Charlie Ratchford Court is a brand new extra care scheme in Chalk Farm, designed for people who need some support to continue living independently and the new residents will be moving in over the next few months.

The scheme includes 38 high-quality modern designed flats, with accessible and adaptable facilities. Residents will be able to enjoy the beautiful communal areas, including the courtyard gardens, spend time with neighbours and relatives in their own flats or in the lounge, and join activities that they will be involved in designing. As restrictions lift, it is hoped that Charlie Ratchford Court will become a true asset to the community, enjoyed by the whole community​.

"Charlie Ratchford Court will provide extra care in a different way. As an older Camden resident, I’ve been proud to play a key part in recruiting staff to work here who share the scheme’s values. I’m confident that the people who live in Charlie Ratchford Court will be supported to continue to live healthy and independent lives and to do more of the things that matter to them.” Eric, Kingsgate Day Service service user and Charlie Ratchford Court co-production partner.
