Show more "Rooted in the Christian faith, life at Dorothea Court supports our residents to live fulfilled lives in their later years. We offer both independent living accommodation and assisted living for older Christians across five converted Victorian houses.

Throughout the week there are opportunities to gather together for activities including arts and crafts or exercises, and we have regular visits from local church leaders who lead devotions and services. We have occasional extra activities such as films and afternoon teas for residents and guests.

We have a very active Friends of Dorothea Court group, as well as a Pilgrims' Friend Society support group who connect with the community and plan some activities throughout the year. We are very well connected with the local church networks." Show less
