Audley Care

Audley has over 25 years experience as one of the UK’s leading operators of retirement villages. The company creates and restores sites in beautiful surroundings to an exceptionally high standard where residents own and live in their own homes.

Audley Care have chosen to support the Hospice by sponsoring Make a Will campaign, holding a stand at Bluebell Walk and sponsoring our Drop-in centre.

Aiming to make retirement living less grey, Audley philosophy is to live life to the full in a safe and secure environment.  At the heart of each development is the Audley Club with the facilities you would wish to find in a country house hotel such as a restaurant, bistro bar, library, health and well-being centre and swimming pool. Homecare and housekeeping is available from Audley Care staff as and when a resident needs it. Available 24 hours, the team is on hand to help with everything from dog walking and shopping through to health care. Audley Care also provides a superb homecare service to non-residents in the wider community.

In October 2008 Audley was acquired by Moorfield Group, bringing with it an investment budget of £40m. With seven sites across the UK and more planned Audley will continue to maintain and grow its presence in this thriving market place.
