Introduction

Lee House is a residential home for active elderly ladies, recognised by the London Borough of Merton.

Set in the heart of Wimbledon Village, the house was Lady Coggan's family home until 1965 when it was converted to its present use. In 1992/93 it was fully modernised and extended with a new two storey wing.

It is a policy of Lee House that no lady should in any way forfeit her independence, but should continue to live a full and active life, with as many outside interests as possible. Enjoyment of a community life without intrusion on personal privacy is the theme of Lee House.

A midday meal is provided in the House dining room each day. Otherwise, the ladies run their own lives; shopping in the village, and dealing with their own finances.

The Superintendent and her friendly support staff provide care and assistance as necessary, including cleaning the rooms.
