Report on the history and current status of Netherlee Cottage, August 2005
     
For over twenty years, St. Andrew’s has been involved in mental health projects
 
Netherlee Cottage, October 2008  
 
In October 2005, residence at Netherlee Cottage was provided for up to six former patients of Ward 19 at Mulleriyawa Mental Hospital under the supervision of two fulltime staff. Unfortunately, the cottage was prone to flooding. In September 2008, a new property was purchased and the ladies are now happily settled on higher ground.  
     
     
Mulleriyawa Mental Hospital  
 
St. Andrew’s continues to be involved at Ward 19 of Mulleriyawa Mental Hospital. A project is underway to upgrade the toilets and showers for patients and staff. This will be partly financed from the proceeds of St. Andrew’s Bazaar in November in the church grounds.
