About Chirk Court
Chirk Court is a warm, welcoming residential care home in the heart of Chirk, close to the England-Wales border.

Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
This creates a calmer, more personal environment where residents are truly known as individuals and meaningful relationships can be built every day.
We're also proud of our sensory garden, which provides a peaceful space for residents to relax, socialise and enjoy the outdoors. The garden has even received recognition from The King for the positive impact it has had on residents and the wider community.
This isn't a rushed, faceless service. We take pride in creating a place where residents feel safe and valued, families feel reassured, and colleagues genuinely support one another.
For many residents, Chirk Court is home - and the people who work here help make it feel that way every day.
