Boutique Care Homes Finalists in Dementia Friendly Business Award at Dementia Care Awards 2025
Boutique Care Homes has been named a finalist in the Dementia Friendly Business Award at the prestigious Dementia Care Awards 2025. These national awards celebrate outstanding organisations that are making a tangible difference to the lives of people living with dementia through innovation, inclusion, and exceptional person-centred care.
The Dementia Friendly Business Award recognises businesses that go beyond expectation—creating services, environments, and experiences that actively support individuals living with dementia. Boutique Care Homes’ shortlisting reflects its deep-rooted belief that dementia care should be compassionate, personalised, and community-focused.
Guided by the ethos of a warm and loving family where everyone feels at home, the group’s homes are built around relationships and community. Its pioneering Nostalgia Care approach celebrates each resident’s life story, supported by a holistic Life Enrichment Programme grounded in connection, contribution, movement, growth, feeling, and reflection.
“Our homes are more than care settings—they are part of the fabric of their communities,” said Ameet Kotecha, Founder and Managing Director of Boutique Care Homes. “This recognition affirms the work of our teams, who deliver compassionate care and create meaningful moments for people living with dementia, every single day.”
This commitment to truly person-centred care is reflected in exceptional outcomes: in 2024, 100% of residents, families, and professionals affirmed that residents are treated with kindness, dignity, and respect, while Boutique Care Homes achieved a group score of 10 out of 10 on carehome.co.uk. These results are driven by a culture that values lived experience—residents regularly shape home life through forums and feedback, ensuring their voices actively influence decisions and the group’s evolving dementia strategy.
Each home actively contributes to its local area through inclusive community initiatives. These include Chartwell House’s Dementia Friendly Folk Concert, The Burlington’s Dementia Friendly Cinema Club, and Brampton Manor’s intergenerational partnerships—each rooted in bringing people together through shared joy and understanding. Dementia Friends sessions are delivered in every home, empowering residents, loved ones, and neighbours to better support those living with dementia.
This shortlisting joins three individual finalist nominations across the group:
- Chartwell House for the Dementia Friendly Community Project Award
- Brampton Manor for the Intergenerational Activity Award
- The Burlington for the Outreach Award
Together, they reflect a consistent and heartfelt commitment to redefining dementia care across every home, every day.
