I feel that the people the run first point have no intention of actually doing anything good for the people which live in the properties that they look after. I feel disgusted in what they provide as a company and feel that we're being ripped off

Madeira court: life by the sea and the best in community living

I can't comment about First Port generally, but can say that our site manager Jamie Lee, makes Madeira court a very safe and friendly place to live. She is very quick to sort out any problems that arise with the building, as well as being a good listening ear. She unobtrusively holds our community together.

Amazing manager

I moved into Homenash House in October 2025 and immediately Caroline the manager made me feel welcome with both her professionalism and friendliness. I don’t think I would haved coped without her knowledge and support through such a difficult time. I would have given 10 stars if it was an option and would recommend living here to everyone. She goes goes above and beyond with her caring nature and we all adore her.
