Alex Ross had a specific concern for the care of elderly Christian Believers and felt that there should be a home with a Christian environment where they could be cared for in the latter years of their lives.  This was a view shared by many others who willingly gave of their time and money to enable the project to be a success.

A constitution was agreed to ensure that this ethos would continue in the future.  This states that all residents should be Believers in the Lord Jesus Christ and that priority will be given to those belonging to the Open Brethren Assemblies. Today, Summerhill is home to Believers from a number of denominations who all share a love for the Lord Jesus Christ and enjoy one another’s fellowship.

Summerhill is located in a pleasant residential area in the west end of Aberdeen with easy access by car or bus from the city centre.   It is also within a short walking distance from Fernielea Gospel Hall.

There are regular inspections by the Care Commission and reports may be viewed on the Care Commission web site.
