About Anglican Care
The Anglican Church of Newcastle founded Anglican Care, and its first facility was a retirement village. Today the network spans five villages across the Hunter, Lake Macquarie and the Mid-North Coast. Anglican Care also provides residential aged care and home care, so care is part of what it does. For someone planning ahead, it is useful to know that an operator works across several kinds of care, though you should still check what is actually available at the village you have in mind. Every retirement community offers villa living, so if you are used to a house with a garden, a villa may feel like a familiar step down in size rather than a big change of style.
Anglican Care takes care of yard work and maintenance, so your time goes on family, friends and the things you enjoy. Amenities and activities vary by community, so each village has its own mix of things to do. When you enquire, ask for the current list of activities at the village you are considering, so you can judge whether it suits how you like to spend your time.
Anglican Care is the aged care ministry of Newcastle Anglican, the Anglican Church of Newcastle, and has been since 1956. Knowing who stands behind a village is a helpful starting point when you compare operators, because it tells you whom to ask about contracts, charges and services.
Costs & fees
The cost of a move is one of the biggest questions in any downsizing decision, so it is worth getting clear answers early. When you contact Anglican Care, ask what you would pay, what the village contract covers and what you would pay for only if you chose to use a service. Ask the same questions of every operator you shortlist, so you can compare the answers side by side. For a current price, call Anglican Care directly on 1800 224 663 or enquire through the listing for the community you're interested in.
Care & lifestyle services
Anglican Care villages are built around independent living, and you can add support at home as your needs change. In-home care and support services are delivered through Australian Government-funded programs, so you stay independent in your own home for longer. If you think you may need support in future, ask how it would be arranged and who you would deal with.
On-site care is not available at every village. It is worth asking about care options at each community you shortlist, so you know where you stand before you decide. Doing this early means there are fewer surprises later and you can compare villages on the same basis.
Every village has communal spaces and a 24-hour emergency call system, so company and help are never far away. If you are weighing up how safe you would feel living alone, visit and ask how the emergency call system works in practice. Greenmount is designated pet-friendly, and other villages permit registered companion animals with management approval, and the mix of facilities and activities varies by community. If you have a pet, raise it early so you understand the approval process for the village you prefer.
What makes Anglican Care different
Anglican Care is locally based, with a locally based customer support team, because being local matters. For many people, speaking with a team based near where they plan to live makes the questions of a move easier to ask and to answer. When you compare villages, it helps to ask about every upfront cost, not just the headline price. Anglican Care is also the aged care ministry of the Anglican Diocese of Newcastle, so faith-based care sits behind every village.
More than 1,200 residents and consumers use Anglican Care's villages, aged care and home care. In the 2025 Aged Care Quality Commission survey, 80% of residents said staff always treat them with respect and 12% said most of the time.
