Show more "St Dominic's Court is a 47 unit Extra Care scheme located in the city of Stoke-on-Trent, which is known for its pottery industry. St Dominic's Court is housed in a historical convent building with many original features and is close to the picturesque Trenthan estate.The Court has four floors, all of which are accessible by a lift. There is car parking and the scheme is close to transport links and local amenities.
In all our Extra Care schemes we have a retirement living officer on hand to take care of the day-to-day running of the development and to be there in the event that you need support with things such as money or tenancy advice.
The beauty is that you get to live totally independently within your own home, but with the comfort of knowing that you can talk to a member of our team should you need to." Show less
