St Mary's Court Care Home

St Mary’s Court is a purpose built care home in Braintree, Essex, providing specialist 24 hour residential dementia care and general nursing care.

Set in ten acres of beautiful grounds, St Mary’s Court, owned by Sonnet Care Homes, is a purpose built care home in Braintree that provides dedicated 24 hour residential care for those who are living with dementia, plus nursing and palliative care for people with higher level general nursing care requirements. At St Mary’s Court we work with older people with dementia, and also have a specialist unit to support people with young onset dementia. We also have a separate unit dedicated to providing high dependency nursing and palliative care in a calm and supportive environment. Our care teams are highly trained and knowledgeable and they work closely with each resident, providing an individual programme of care and support that enables them to live safely and as independently as possible, and with dignity at all times.

Over the years, we are proud to share that we St Mary's Court Care Home have supported the incredible Lennox Children’s Cancer Fund! 🎉

The fund works tirelessly to support children with cancer and their families, providing emotional, practical and financial help during the most challenging times. From special memory-making experiences and family days out, to wellbeing support and bringing moments of joy through music and activities, they make a real difference when it’s needed most. 💛

From brave team members taking on skydives in the past, to our regular fundraising events throughout the year, we always strive to play our part and give back. ❤️

This year has been extra special with our “Guess the Name of the Bear” game, where we raised an amazing £50 to help bring music and joy to children and their families. 🐻🎶

A huge congratulations to Beverley for guessing the winning name, Rupert! And what a lovely gesture to pass the bear on to Cheryl, who shares that special name with her great nephew. 💖

Thank you to everyone who has supported this wonderful cause. Your generosity truly helps brighten the lives of children and families facing incredibly difficult journeys. 🌟

Let’s keep the spirit of giving alive and continue supporting our local charities. Together, we can help create a brighter future for those who need it most. 🙌

We would like to say a huge thank you to Healthwatch Essex for our amazing new slippers 🥿 ❤️
Our lovely residents took part in a free slipper event St Mary's Court Care Home where they got to unbox and even try on the slippers as a fun and enjoyable event!

The free slipper event allowed residents to enjoy the excitement of unboxing stylish and comfy new slippers all from the joys of their home. This event being bought into the home made it so practical and flexible for our lovely residents which they appreciated so much! We all loved getting to know the people from Healthwatch Essex and asking them about their products, never thought you could know so much about slippers ! 😆

Something as simple as well-fitting slippers can help reduce the risk of falls, keep feet warm, and give residents greater confidence when moving around their home. Most importantly, it brings a little extra comfort to everyday life.
The purpose of this event was to provide safe and comfortable new slippers for our residents. Residents were also given a chance to speak to the wonderful information and guidance service as well as the carers voices team! 💟

Seeing the smiles and hearing how much they’re appreciated reminds us that wellbeing is often found in the small details. Thank you for inviting us to be part of this wonderful project, our residents are over the moon 😍

What a truly lovely afternoon of retail therapy, all enjoyed in the comfort of our home 🛍️

Today, our residents were treated to a special shopping experience thanks to Gemini Fashion , who brought their wonderful selection of clothing directly to us. Instead of travelling out, everyone was able to browse at their own pace, exploring the many rails filled with colourful outfits, stylish pieces, and seasonal favourites.

The afternoon was filled with smiles and excitement as residents carefully chose new additions to their wardrobes, sharing opinions, complimenting each other, and enjoying the full shopping experience right here at home 💟

Providing opportunities like this means everyone can take part comfortably and confidently, enjoying a sense of independence and the simple pleasure of choosing something new to wear. A fantastic day enjoyed by all 🛍️

🧵✨ Bringing history back to life!

Residents at St Mary's Court care home in were thrilled to be invited to take part in Braintree District Museum’s project to recreate the long‑lost Silver End Dolls, originally created by Silver End Women's Institute almost 100 years ago.

After learning the fascinating story of Edward Bright - the famous “Fat Man of Maldon” - our residents chose to bring him back to life through craft, creativity and teamwork.

We can’t wait to see our finished doll proudly displayed in the museum! 🧸🏛️
