Spacious and comfortable, it's somewhere our residents can feel is their real home, for as long as they are with us.

Like every one of the Royal British Legion's Care Homes, we are exclusive to ex-Service people and their dependents.

That's why we're like a big family that every one of our residents belongs to - no one feels left out.

Dunkirk Memorial House has 60 rooms, all with en suite facilities and a 30 bed Dementia care wing. We know how much being independent means to so many of our residents, so everyone has a key to his or her own room as requested. Round-the-clock care from a team of experienced, registered nurses and dedicated care assistants gives a feeling of security." Show less
