Maidment Court

Our Maidment Court scheme in Poole replaces an existing outdated care home. The new scheme comprises two buildings: one providing 47 integrated retirement community apartments and the other 40 care suites plus staff offices, a bistro, coffee lounge, activity room, shop and hairdressing salon.

The spacious apartments allow wheelchair use and are dual-aspect, with stacked south-facing balconies providing shade and private outside space. To break down the scale and bulk, there are glazed links, deep recesses, varying heights and a palette of complementary colours resulting in the appearance of a cluster of buildings rather than one large mass.

The scheme meets both Lifetime Home standards and requirements of the HAPPI report.
