Residential Care
Partridge House in Bevendean is a 38 bed specialist care home for older people with dementia. The Anchor Trust who contracts all beds to South Downs NHS Trust for allocation by Brighton and Hove Adult Social Care owns it. It was their first specialist dementia home created in partnership with ARDIS who provided funds and extensive expertise in geriatric psychiatric care.

Our £40,000 project is nearly complete to provide a conservatory at the home. The addition living area is essential since 14 additional bedrooms were created from living areas last year. Our patron Dora Bryan will dedicate the conservatory to the memory of ARDIS fundraiser Dot Voller on 21 May 2004.

ARDIS maintain an amenity fund for Partridge House to improve the quality of life for residents. Friends vital support of Anchor work provide extra comforts and equipment for patients. As gardening is a favourite pastime, the Friends of ARDIS recently donated a new greenhouse sited in the landscaped garden.

Admission to Partridge House is strictly limited to people who have been assessed for their care needs by the community mental health teams of Brighton and Hove.
