About Cumbria Emmaus Trust

Cumbria Emmaus Trust is a 26-bed residential care home located in Moresby Parks, Whitehaven, serving the Cumberland area in North West England. Run by the Pilgrims' Friend Society, it provides care for older people and those living with dementia. The home was last inspected by the Care Quality Commission on 6 July 2023, when it received a rating of Requires Improvement.

This means the provider must make changes to meet legal requirements and improve the quality of care and support. The home's size allows for a smaller, more intimate setting compared to larger facilities, though it should be noted that the most recent inspection identified areas where improvements are needed.
