ABOUT OUR SCHEMES

Our Extra Care Housing schemes, also known as assisted living, are made up of self-contained one or two-bedroom apartments, all carefully designed and built to help clients live as independently as they can.

Oxlip House is located in a new residential area on the outskirts of the historic market town of Bury St Edmunds.
