Oaksey House Completion

and after………

This magnificent new facility was open on Good Friday, Lambourn’s Open Day 2007, for many hundreds of interested visitors to see for themselves the wonderful work we were promised had taken place. We were not disappointed!

The Gym, with it’s array of very modern muscle toning equipment, the Sauna, the two physio rooms, showers and special baths for those who have difficulty climbing in. Space and light being the key words, the whole place is an absolute joy to roam around.
John and Jackie Porter, the resident Managers, were brimming with pride as they showed the visitors round.
The housing for the injured has to be seen to be fully appreciated, the kitchen/dining/lounge area is really well set out with nothing left to chance. The bedrooms have fitted wardrobes and cupboards, plugs for television, phone and computer and plenty of light and room. The well equipped kitchen has one very interesting feature one I have not seen before .. you can place your hand on the hob and not get burned but put a pan of water on and it will boil. This technology gained from Scandinavia I’m told, as they are far more forward thinking than we are.
The Respite accommodation has sleeping and toilet facilities for a nurse in a room above, if 24 hour nursing is required.

The Function Room has a state of the art kitchen and facilities for meetings and resident functions, including a large screen for viewing some of the larger racing festivals.

All this is encompassed within a beautifully laid out complex with the main building having the added beauty of some wonderfully themed racing murals by Specialist Painter Jess Arthur.
