Westport Care Home in Stepney Green is celebrating after being recognised with two prestigious honours in the 2026 Lottie Awards. The home has been named one of the UK's Top 100 Care Homes and secured a place in the Top 10 Care Expert Choice Awards.

Now in their second year, the Lottie Awards recognise care homes across the UK that demonstrate exceptional commitment to residents and their families. Lottie's team assessed more than 14,000 care homes using a comprehensive, data-driven review based on factors including regulator ratings, enquiry handling, facilities and activities, the quality of online listings, and verified family reviews.

Westport was delighted to be named one of the Top 100 Care Homes in the UK and especially pleased to secure a coveted place in the Top 10 Care Expert Choice Award. This award is chosen by care sector professionals who recommend the homes they would trust with their own loved ones, making it even more meaningful!

In reaction to the award wins, Westport’s Home Manager, Rajiv Mungur said, “Being recognised as one of the UK's Top 100 Care Homes is a tremendous achievement for everyone at Westport. We are particularly proud to receive the Care Expert Choice recognition, as it reflects the confidence and respect of professionals within the care sector.

These awards recognise not only the quality of care provided but also the culture of kindness, professionalism and respect that they have built. We are immensely proud of this achievement and remain committed to investing in our people and delivering exceptional outcomes for residents and their families.”
