About The Lawn Residential Care Home
The Lawn Residential Care Home provides residential and dementia care for older people in Alton, as part of Friends of the Elderly, a not-for-profit charity. The organisation combines accommodation, personal support and social companionship, with care services designed around physical and mental wellbeing. Residential care is presented as a home-from-home setting for people who need professional support.
The Lawn also offers respite care, including short stays that can help after illness or hospital treatment, give family carers a break or let someone experience care-home life before making a longer-term decision. The charity reinvests surplus funds into its services rather than distributing profits. The Lawn’s published weekly fees start from £1,625.
