Not for profit
Thornhill House is run by The John Thornhill Memorial Trust.  It is required by the Charities Commission to provide full and open accounts.  The Trust runs the home on a “not for profit” basis to provide the highest possible level of care.

The greatest cost to the home is staff wages. Thornhill House has a particularly high ratio of staff to residents, which enables the special level of care that we at Thornhill House believe is essential.

Fees

We are aware of the complexity of the funding of long term Residential and Nursing Care and have therefore accumulated some useful information and contacts allowing us to guide our residents and their families through the maze of funding both from government and charitable sources.

Benevolent Fund
The purpose of the Fund is to provide assistance to those residents who, after all other “charitable avenues” have been exhausted, may still need some financial help. Several residents have benefited from the fund and we are continually looking to find ways to build it up from numerous fund raising events held throughout the year.
