The charity runs:
- 88 residential, specialist dementia and nursing care homes, with 4,000 older residents.[2]
- 67 retirement living communities, which provide 2,800 older people living independently with flexible support and personalised care, with a further seven sites in development; and
- 62 community groups (formerly Live at Home) for older people who live independently in their own homes. The community groups aim to tackle loneliness and isolation among older people.[2] Together with on-line services, these support about 11,500 older people.
These services are provided by 7,000 staff supported by 3,000 volunteers.[2]
All donations and any surplus generated are invested into MHA's services.
