About Rochcare
Founded in the early 1980s, Rochcare began after identifying a gap in quality residential care—many existing facilities lacked evolution to support the changing needs of elderly and dementia patients. Rochcare aimed to innovate by tailoring care environments designed for comfort, safety, and dignity.
Today, Rochcare operates four leading care homes across the area:
- Pendle Brook
- Coniston House
- Royley House
- Bank Hall
