Coping together through the storm

Following the impact of Storm Goretti this past Thursday, we wanted to share an update with our wonderful community. While our building suffered roof damage, the most important thing is that all of our residents are safe.

We are immensely proud of our incredible team. During the height of the storm, a member of our care team acted instinctively when he heard the roof crack, carrying a resident to safety in his arms. It is this level of devotion that defines Poldhu.

To ensure everyone’s comfort, 14 residents were moved to secure areas within the home, while six others have been temporarily settled into our sister homes, Trevaylor Manor and Ponsandane. These moves were carefully planned with families to ensure a seamless transition of care, possessions, and, most importantly, familiar faces, as our dedicated staff have moved with them to provide continuity.

We can confirm that all residents are warm, well-fed, and being looked after with the extra love and care they deserve.

A Heartfelt Thank You ☺️ 🩷
We are overwhelmed by the kindness of local businesses who have already stepped up to help. To our families, staff, and the wider Mullion and Helston community: your support is our strength.

Thank you for standing by us.
