Our Work in Partnerships
_edited.png){kind=logo}
Starting from the Quaker values and with our charitable status, one of Westdale's goals and our remit is to work to the benefit of the residents and the wider community. As a not for profit organisation we are always looking for ways to give back to the community and help people. We build professional relationships with other organisations and work in partnership to benefit of our residents and the wider community.
Your CVS Partnership
We take great pride in our close partnership with Your CVS, formerly known as Rushcliffe Community Volunteer Services.
Through this exciting partnership, we've been able to share our resources and contribute meaningfully to the community. Westdale provides a mini bus while Your CVS offers volunteer drivers, allowing us to make our bus available for community use.
Our residents and the community both benefit from wonderful drivers who take our residents on regular day trips and community members can enjoy shopping, attend events, and keep appointments helping to prevent isolation.

We have a close relationship with St Giles Church in West Bridgford, they provide us Church services at the home and are always welcoming to our residents in Church.
Musters Medical Practice & the Care Homes Team
We have a fantastic GP surgery we work with, Musters Medical Practice, and these provide fast caring medical attention to all our residents who choose to register there.
We also work with the associated local Care Home Team who offer invaluable support to our residents in areas such as general assessments, medication, dietary support, vaccinations and various referrals as needed. All new residents can access an assessment.
Notts LGBT+ Network
We are friends of the LGBT+ community and support the Notts LGBT+ network who are a volunteer-led registered charity. We want to help create a network of safe spaces for people looking for information, advice and help relating to LGBT+ issues, including sexuality, gender identity, sexual health and emotional well-being.
Westdale Care Home wants to be part of the solution to the issues elderly people from the LGBT+ community face.
Westdale has an open, welcoming and inclusive environment and we work to improve our understanding of the barriers faced by those in the LGBT+ community. We consider our selves Friends.
Duke of Edinburgh DofE
We support young people to complete their Duke Of Edinburgh awards by completing a period of work at Westdale.
Our residents love having young people to talk to and we like giving people a good early work experience.
