Cromwell House opened in 1969 and was MHA's first, purpose built care home in Norwich.

Cromwell House has recently undergone some major refurbishment work - it is now fresh, modern and suited to the needs of the elderly.

All of the resident's rooms have en-suites which have been newly tiled, with new toilets and sinks put in. The dining room has been refreshed to enable residents to enjoy a much more attractive dining experience.

The home benefits from an enthusiastic Activities co-ordinator 5 days a week who is always planning trips out, in house entertainment, Cognitive Stimulation Therapy, Art Therapy and regular exercise/activities. We have our own reflexologist, and music Therapist. The residents have access to our own minibus so trips to church every Sunday are a regular occurrence, and we also hold daily, in house services for those wishing to practice their faith

The gardens are beautifully maintained by our Maintenance Man, and we have recently purchased a gorgeous summer house to enable residents to get out in all weathers should they wish!

MHA is a national charity providing care, accommodation and support services to over 17,800 older people throughout Britain.
We are one of the most well-respected care providers in the sector, providing high-quality services to older people of all faiths and none for more than 75years.
