Jessopp Court

Jessopp Court is a "Very Sheltered" housing scheme in Waltham Abbey. It is managed in partnership between Epping Forest District Council and Essex County Council Social Care.

The scheme meets the needs of older people who want to lead a full and independent life, but need of a higher level of support than sheltered housing usually provides. The flats are entirely self contained with living room, kitchen, bedroom and bathroom. Each flat is also fitted with an emergency alarm system. A separate guest room is available for family and friends. Care and support is provided by a team of care staff who are on the premises 24 hours daily. Their job is to give physical and emotional support. They work with residents to plan the care they need and help them to live independently.
