The Trust comprises of two houses in close proximity – Nine Oaks and Thornton House and provides:
Single flats (or Studios) and one bedroom flats and apartments (suitable for singles/couples).
Each flat is self-contained and residents have a key to their own flat and to the main front door of the house.
Two freshly prepared meals a day are served.
Free Wi-Fi is available in the communal room in the Nine Oaks building which residents from both houses are welcome to us. Our residents can also have their own landline fitted so they can keep in touch with family and friends.
Regular social events are arranged throughout the year, including Knit and Natter, games afternoons, music recitals, quiz evenings, fashion shows and others.
A communal laundry is available. A personal alarm system is also available.
