A warm welcome to Brandon Lodge Care Home in County Durham
You’ll find Brandon Lodge Care Home in a quiet residential area, just a short drive from Durham city. We are in easy reach of local shops and public transport, making us easily accessible for visitors to pop-in for a chat.
One of the leading care homes in Durham, our Care team offers residential care for people who need a little help with daily tasks, and nursing care for those with complex medical needs. We also provide respite care to give family or friends a well-earned break, and intermediate care as an alternative to a hospital stay.
Brandon Lodge Care Home has also received positive assessments from the Care Quality Commission and carehome.co.uk.
We have regular visits from our local police dog, Jet, for pet therapy interaction. Pet therapy has been found to greatly benefit our residents, who love to cuddle and stroke Jet. Our home also has a lovely outside garden area, which our residents love to explore and relax in. They particularly like to sit in the shaded outdoor area and enjoy an ice cream.

Muriel (Mo) Sharp
Care Home Manager
Mo started her career in Health and Social Care in 1998 as a Laundry Assistant. When the hours became limited in this, she decided to try a Care Assistant role. She enjoyed this role so much, she was inspired to go back to university and complete her degree in Mental Health Nursing. Mo worked in many different care homes within the business before becoming the Care Home Manager at Brandon Lodge in 2018. Outside of work, Mo likes to spend time with friends and family and also loves some relaxing me-time. Her biggest love is going on holiday abroad. Mo describes her job as ‘very rewarding as you are helping people to live their life the best way they can.’ Nothing makes her smile more than receiving great feedback from peers, family members and the residents.
“Care is rewarding as you are helping people make the most of their lives and you do make a difference.”
