The Meadow Care Home

Respite care at The Meadow

Where are we? 

The Meadow is in Muswell Hill, north London. It's a purpose-built home set in large gardens which affords a peaceful environment for residents to enjoy.  The town centre is within easy access, there is a bus stop at the end of the drive. Highgate and East Finchley tube stations are both approximately 1.5 miles away providing easy access to central London. Alexandra Park and Palace and Highgate Wood are also within easy reach. 

Award-winning music therapy

Our care home in Muswell Hill is committed to providing alternative therapies such as music therapy to help alleviate isolation and the symptoms for those living with dementia. Our trained and award-winning therapist is funded by charitable donations. They interact directly with residents through live music therapy sessions. This includes singing, playing simple percussion instruments or responding to musical cues in a one-to-one or group setting. Take a look at our video to find out more about this life-changing therapy.  

Chaplaincy and pastoral support

The Meadow is proud to be supported by a dedicated Chaplain who offers pastoral support to all, whatever their beliefs. Our chaplain provides a listening presence, companionship and one-to-one pastoral support for all residents, their friends and relatives, and staff members - irrespective of their beliefs - and organise worship for those who wish to participate. Where appropriate, residents are encouraged to maintain links with local faith communities. 

Activities, trips and events

We support everybody’s individual choices, interests and hobbies and our passionate Activity Coordinators love keeping residents active and entertained. They provide a fun-packed and stimulating schedule for people to participate in as they choose.

There’s our choir, armchair exercise sessions, baking, flower arranging, arts and crafts, quizzes, bingo, external entertainers and church services, just to mention a few of the things we get up to.
