Dignified care, carefully taking shape.
Rowan & Rise is being shaped around a simple belief: arriving at the care phase of life should not mean arriving somewhere unfamiliar.
The vision is a considered care community where skilled support and a life fully lived are not in conflict with one another. They are treated as inseparable.
Our residents are people who have lived rich, active lives. They have had kitchens that smelled of something good. Gardens they knew by heart. Neighbours who waved at them from the door. We do not ask them to leave that behind. We carry it with them.
Rowan & Rise was founded as the natural continuation of a care journey that begins with community, warmth, and nature — and never loses those things, regardless of what support is needed along the way.
A considered care community, taking shape.
Rowan & Rise is being prepared for people who need more support without losing the warmth, individuality, and social rhythm that make a place feel like home.
A home first
Rooms, routines, meals, and shared spaces are being shaped around familiarity, comfort, and the dignity of everyday life.
Nature close by
The setting is part of the care philosophy: outdoor moments, garden views, seasonal planting, and places to pause.
Families included
The aim is simple communication, open visiting, and a care relationship that includes the people who know each resident best.
Clear next steps
Rowan & Rise is taking shape carefully. Registered interest holders will receive confirmed launch, room, and availability updates.
The care you need. The life you deserve.
Care at Rowan & Rise is being designed around people, not schedules. The intention is personal, regularly reviewed support delivered with warmth, clinical confidence, and a clear respect for each resident's own rhythm.
Personal Care & Daily Living
Support with the rhythms of daily life — dressing, bathing, mobility, and mealtimes — shaped around warmth, respect, and each person's preferences and pace.
Specialist Nursing Care
Planned nursing support for complex health needs, medication management, wound care, and post-hospital recovery. Skilled, calm, and carefully coordinated.
Dementia & Memory Care
A dedicated approach to memory care that holds the person, not just the diagnosis. Structured routines, familiar environments, and a team trained to communicate with empathy.
Respite & Short Stays
For families who need time to rest and residents who want to discover Rowan & Rise before a longer decision. A gentle introduction to the life being shaped here.
A life that still feels like yours.
The question we ask every time we design something — from a bedroom to a morning routine — is: would this feel like home? Not a cared-for version of home. Home.
Every room at Rowan & Rise is your room.
Bring the things that matter — photographs, a favourite lamp, the books you keep near. Rooms are being shaped to feel personal from the first day. Private ensuite. Natural light. Your window, your view.
A good meal is one of the great things.
Meals at Rowan & Rise are prepared fresh, on site, every day. We believe that a good meal — eaten with company, at a proper table, with time to enjoy it — is not a small thing. It is, in fact, one of the great things. We accommodate all dietary requirements with genuine care for flavour and pleasure, not just nutrition.
Nature does something that care plans alone cannot.
The natural setting of Rowan & Rise is not incidental to the care vision. It is central to it. The grounds are being considered as places to walk, sit, return to, and feel part of the day.
The rhythm of this place draws people in.
Rowan & Rise is a community. Some residents have been part of the wider Sight Acre world for years — arriving here through Aldermere Collective as their needs have grown, and finding the same warmth and values they have always known. Others arrive for the first time and find it takes very little time to feel at home.
We know how much is riding on this.
“Finding the right care for someone you love is one of the hardest decisions you will ever make. We do not take that lightly.”
There is no version of this process that doesn't involve worry, and we want to be honest about that. You are making a decision that affects someone you love deeply — and you are doing it while managing your own life, your own emotions, and often, a system that doesn't make things easy.
We are here to help. From your first conversation with our team to move-in day — and every day after — you are part of this. Rowan & Rise is not a place you hand your loved one to and step back from. It is a community that includes you.
What we promise you
A named contact for your family from day one — one person who knows your situation and is always reachable.
Transparent, regular communication about your loved one's wellbeing — no surprises, no chasing.
Open visiting. Come when you can. Stay as long as you'd like. Bring the dog.
Honest conversations, even when those conversations are difficult. We would rather tell you the truth than make you comfortable in the short term.
A commitment that the people who care for your loved one will know them — really know them.
The same world. More support.
For those who have been part of the Aldermere Collective community, Rowan & Rise will feel immediately familiar: the same values, the same warmth, and the same relationship with nature and community, now with more support. For those discovering Rowan & Rise for the first time, the commitment is the same — familiar values, practical warmth, and care that feels continuous.
