Social care charity Guild Care has acquired Saxon House in Worthing in order to expand the services it offers to the local community.
Guild Care supports older people, people living with dementia, and children & adults with learning disabilities. By moving to Saxon House – which will be renamed ‘Holland House’ after Guild Care patron and donor Mike Holland – the charity aims to enhance the care it provides in a modern, purpose-built environment – strengthening its services, improving user experiences, and creating a more unified, welcoming, and inclusive environment for all.
Guild Care CEO Warren Fabes said: “The acquisition of Saxon House is a transformational moment for Guild Care. The new facility will allow us to extend our reach and enhance the services we provide to the local community. We are excited about the opportunities it creates for the people who use our services and our staff & volunteers, and ensures that we can continue to deliver compassionate, effective, and accessible care in a bright, modern, and supportive environment.
“This is a landmark moment for Guild Care as we embark on a transformative journey that will have a lasting positive impact on those we serve. We look forward to a bright and inspiring future with Saxon House at the heart of our community. We would also like to extend our heartfelt thanks to Mike Holland, a patron, major donor & long term supporter of Guild Care, whose generous donation has contributed significantly to enable this acquisition. We would also like to thank Jacobs Steel Estate Agents for their support in helping us acquire Saxon House, as well as Bennett Griffin Solicitors who acted on behalf of Guild Care on the purchase of Saxon House.”
