At St Elizabeth’s Centre, (www.stelizabeths.org.uk/) which encompasses a non-maintained Boarding School, a Residential Home, a College and three Social Enterprises for those suffering from epilepsy, associated disabilities and a variety of complex medical needs, the Sisters are fully occupied in helping in various ways:
