wish to live alone.

Half Moon House offers assisted living, giving residents the
independence of having their own room with the security of an
alarm system and a house manager on site. The house manager
will check on residents every day and can help assist you in an
emergency so you can feel safe, secure and comfortable. They will
also build a lasting relationship with your family, GP and any
external agencies.
Many residents are eligible for housing benefit and other financial
support to help towards the cost and anyone interested is invited to
contact the manager whether or not they can afford the costs from
their own resources.
We have two delightful sittiing rooms and a dining room to eat,
relax and solcialise. There is also a charming courtyard garden.

We provide care and support for older people
At Abbeyfield we believe older people deserve time and respect.
It's our mission to provide the best service of care and housing for
all our residents, and to be a champion for older people. We have
been a charitable housing organisation for nearly 60 years.
Throughout this time our residents are always at the heart of what
we do and the services we provide.
WHAT IS ABBEYFIELDS?
Abbeyfield is a national organisation providing
housing for elderly people - it is in fact the largest
provider of homes in the voluntary sector. There
are some 1000 ABBEYFIELD homes throughout the
UK run by volunteers supported by the National
organisation. The local societies are either
registered or exempt charities.
Where older people find care in housing
With regular entertainment and day trips, there’s always plenty
to look forward to at Abbeyfield. We have vacancies at the
moment. Even if you are just curious, come and have a look, you
will be made very welcome.
