Jules & Andreas Vaern
Owners
With nearly 20 years of experience in the care industry, we are passionate about creating a warm, caring, and homely environment where every resident feels valued, comfortable, and part of The Abbey family.
Our connection to The Abbey is particularly special to us, as Andreas’ mother lived here happily for eight years. This gave us a personal understanding of how important kindness, dignity, and compassionate care are to residents and their families, and these values remain at the heart of everything we do.
With our background in business, we work together to ensure The Abbey is professionally managed while retaining the warmth, friendship, and genuine care that make it feel like home.
Outside of work, family is at the heart of our lives. We enjoy spending time with our two daughters, caring for our animals, enjoying the countryside, and visiting Norway, a place that holds a very special place in our hearts.
