About Homesdale

Homesdale is a Christian community for older people in Wanstead, north-east London. Comprised of 62 self-contained flats, Homesdale offers a safe and supportive community for those who are living independently.

Hunter Court and Mountier Court offer purpose-built flats designed for both couples and individuals, each with their own front door for privacy and independence. There is a mixture of bedsit-style properties, and one, two- and three-bedroom flats. Each flat has its own kitchen and a bathroom with shower.

Our community

Staff are on site to offer support, advice and a friendly presence. A wellbeing call is made each morning, and residents have access to a 24-hour emergency alarm system, giving peace of mind to both residents and their families.

Residents can meet in the large, communal lounge which opens onto decked areas and gardens. Other facilities include laundry rooms, a secure door entry system and lifts to all floors.

Homesdale offers a varied programme of activities from gentle exercises to afternoon teas and seasonal events. These are arranged by the Residents Committee.

As a Christian community, Homesdale provides regular opportunities for fellowship and worship which include a weekly Christian service, visits from local Church leaders, prayer courses, and Bible Study and services for special Christian days.

Friends and family are always welcome to visit and, for a small charge, guests can stay in the guest rooms to make the most of their time with their loved ones.

Above all, Homesdale is your home - you have freedom to spend your time however you wish.
