The Order of Malta has many activities around the country which include caring for the vulnerable, and especially the elderly.
Our Care Homes
The Orders of St John Care Trust (OSJCT) runs 70 care homes in four counties, caring for 3500 residents, as well as providing some assisted living accommodation. The most stringent measures are in place to protect the residents at this time. They are constantly reviewed as matters change.
