"My relative is a resident at Karuna Manor Care Home, whom I visit regularly. On my recent visit on the 10th of November 2023, Karuna Manor had organised an amazing singing group for the residents as a Diwali celebration. All the residents seemed to enjoy the music and the songs. They also provided light foods and soft drinks for everyone. I have witnessed personally all the effort and genuine care Karuna Manor and all the staff provide to its residents. Well done, everyone, at Karuna Manor."-Hanish K (Brother of Resident) Overall Experience 5 out of 5
