As part of our 35 years of West Kent campaign, we are celebrating different stories from our residents. Rodrick and Doreen are residents at White Oak Court. White Oak Court in Swanley has been a vital part of the community for over 30 years. Since 2018, it has provided housing with extra care services, currently supporting over 56 residents.   

At West Kent, we are passionate about building homes and communities for residents who want to live independently but still wish to have support. Our Emerald schemes create an environment where help is available through staff who work collaboratively with residents to shape services to better meet their needs as well as extra facilities and services on site 

Doreen adds that White Oak Court is like “a home within a home.”
