Sutton’s newest care home, Kingfisher Court, was officially opened by Rtd Lt Col Keith Seddon.

The purpose-built home, on Kingfisher Way, will care for 66 local older people requiring residential or dementia care.

Prior to the ribbon-cutting ceremony, Kingfisher Court presented Ken Bonsall with a cheque for £500 for the Lee Bonsall Memorial Fund after fundraising over the Easter weekend.

Rtd Lt Col Seddon said “It is like a five star hotel. I am sure the home is going to be an integral part of the local community.”

The home has been designed and built by LNT Care Developments and will be run by Oakdale Care Group.
