£5.8m care home launches second phase

Lytham-based Lakeview Rest Homes has launched the second phase of its ground-breaking £5.8m flagship development, The Moorings.

Fifty jobs have been created with the launch of The Moorings.

Nick Wood, managing director of Lakeview Rest Homes, said: “We specialise in providing a personal level of care which recognises the importance of independence, dignity and choice, and The Moorings is a prime example of this. The 5-star hotel principles we bring to our residents affords them absolute dignity, and offers an unrivalled luxurious independence.
