Significant events
- “In October, we undertook a full building survey to assess the condition of the home and identify areas that require repair.”
- “we chose to install another lift in the home both as an additional means to get about for all residents and as a back-up for the main passenger lift.”
- “We installed CCTV throughout our communal areas this year”
- “We recovered the path in bright yellow, mulched rubber to provide a soft walking pathway for those with mobility issues.”
- “This year saw [activities co-ordinators] support by several permanent volunteers and also volunteers from local schools.”
- “our regular entertainers such as the Ladybirds and Ronnie James who bring music and dancing into the home.”
- “The year started with a welcome call from The Southend on Sea Bowls and Social Club whose president, Barry Case, wished to sponsor us for the year. Under Barry's patronage, a great many events were organised including a sky dive in August with his daughter! In total, Barry and the club raised almost £6,000 for St Martins' residents, which is an amazing achievement.”
- “the year saw us form a new committee focused on fundraising.”
- “successful in bidding for a donation from Shared Space in Westcliff, a unique Christian-based network of charity shops.”
- “In March 2025, our service underwent a CQC inspection and was rated as "Requires Improvement." This outcome was deeply disappointing... In response, we have worked closely with CQC inspectors, management teams, and our local authority to develop a comprehensive plan of action.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. Periods don't have to be exactly 12 months apart — a long or short period (typical around incorporation or year-end changes) will distort the comparison. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
