Weston & Queensway House shot to fame in May 2019 as resident Eileen Pegg featured in a major BBC One documentary, Our Dementia Choir. Actress Vicky McClure visited the home to see first-hand the life-enhancing impacts of music therapy in dementia care.

Weston House is linked by a walkway to Queensway House – the former is the older of the two homes by a few months. Weston House became part of MHA in 2005 after it had been operating for 12 years.
