In 1994, Age Concern St. Helens purchased the Mansion House and, with the help of many volunteers, restored the historic building.
In 2008, Age Concern St. Helens merged with partner organisations resulting in name a change to Age Concern Mid Mersey, soon after becoming Age UK Mid Mersey who we are today.
Partnerships between Age UK Mid Mersey, Friends of Victoria Park and St Helens Council resulted in a successful bid for Heritage Lottery Funding for redevelopment of the park, including The Mansion House orangery and fountain.
Sadly, Age UK Mid Mersey have reluctantly decided to sell The Mansion House. The iconic building has been the charity’s head office for more than a quarter of a century and has been home to day center sessions and activities for over 50s. We have taken our activities out into community settings across St Helens and plan to invest the proceeds into the development of new services for over50s across the community.
