The new care home in Dukeminster Road, just off Church Street will provide much needed contemporary living spaces for older people in the local area. The 75 bed home features the Quantum Care Plaza which includes a Best Friends Café, hairdressers and children’s play area as well as five beautifully designed lounge/diners, each with its own kitchenette, helping to reflect a domestic environment.

Pupils from the school have been working on the project to create a time capsule which reflects life in 2015. Maria Ball, Chief Executive of Quantum Care said “we are absolutely delighted to open Dukeminster Court and look forward to providing such a high standard of accommodation for older people in Dunstable”.
