Natalie DeSilva
Registered Manager

Natalie has a passion to improve social care and make a positive impact in the places she works. Having worked as a Service Manager in another Liverpool Charity for over five years, Natalie was ready to bring that experience to a new type of care. 

Natalie loves learning new things, and in this job she does that every day. She enjoys seeing the residents feeling safe and settled and in a place where they can engage with activities and other people.

Our History. 

Old_Turner_Home-254x300.jpg

Turner Home has been supporting men since the building was completed in 1884. The vision for the building, grounds and services were led by Anne Turner, wife of Liverpool merchant and Member of Parliament Charles Turner. The house was designed as a memorial to her husband and son and originally named ‘The Turner Memorial Home of Rest for Chronic Sufferers’, offering accommodation and residential care for chronically sick men and boys.

​

When Mrs Turner died in 1905 the home was passed into Trust, and for over a century has offered support to men of all ages. Today the Charity continues to deliver the Turner family's ethos, providing a place of peace and rest for those who need it.
