The Greatham Foundation has a long and proud history of working with vulnerable people living in the North East of England. Established in 1273 by Bishop Robert de Stichell to help poor and elderly people, throughout the centuries we have taken this founding ethos and developed into a modern organisation meeting a range of 21st century needs. 

Our charity has a long and proud history of working with older people, those living with dementia and their family carers in the Hartlepool, North Tees and East Durham areas.

Additionally, through our grants programme, we support a number of local charities and social enterprises across the North East.

The charity works to develop and provide excellent person-centred care, support and housing services for people, particularly older people and those living with dementia.

The Hospital of God now employs c100 people and its main charitable activities are:

Residential care for older people at Stichell House Residential Home, a purpose built 35 bed facility set in the beautifully landscaped grounds at Greatham

Day care and community support services for people living with dementia, and their families, delivered through our day centres, our community-based pastimes service and our family support services throughout Hartlepool and East Durham

Support information and advice through our dementia advisory service ‘The Bridge’ in Hartlepool 

Supported living for older people in our Almshouses located in Greatham, Norton, Stockton and the wider North-East 

The making of grants to voluntary and community sector and those not-for-profit organisations which make a difference to the lives of people in our communities
