About Birch Hill Care Centre
Birch Hill Care Centre provides personalised residential and dementia care for adults in Norham, near Berwick-upon-Tweed. Respite care is also available through Lenore Care, while the registered scope includes older people, physical disabilities, sensory impairment and younger adults.
The home provides dementia care for up to 24 adults. Lenore Care keeps its homes small and independent, so residents are known as individuals rather than numbers. That smaller scale gives families a clear point of difference when comparing care settings. Birch Hill suits people who need residential or dementia support in a home-like environment, with a focus on continuity, familiarity and individual care.

How much does Birch Hill Care Centre cost?
