Retirement is a hard word to understand, especially for those who have always been active throughout their lives. This is why, even in this day and age effective solutions for a dignified retirement living is scarce. As American Universalist Hosea Ballou said ‘Forty is the old age of youth and fifty is the youth of old age.’At Irene homes, we believe life begins at 60. we do not settle down, we reinvent our lives and start anew, which is why we’ve placed the word ‘Living’ next to ‘Retirement’.

Our Vision
Imbued with its social commitments, love for fellow brethren as well as with a moral fiber to give back something incredible to society, which is devoid of basic values and a caring attitude, CCWS wants to provide a peaceful shelter for senior citizens to rewind, relax, and have a meaningful existence.
Our Mission
Irene Homes provides a perfect platform where the responsibility of the children towards their parents and the parents’ longing to be loved and cared for, amalgamates. Irene Homes is an abode for the senior gentry, who wish to get away from the hustle and bustle of life and find a serene atmosphere, where one can converse with Nature.
Board of Directors
Cochin Community Welfare Society (CCWS) is a registered charitable society established in the year 1975, under the initiative of Salem Mar Thoma Church, Ernakulam. Understanding the acute need of society, CCWS always wanted to do something substantial for the social well-being of the destitute. The pragmatic philosophy of the board of directors of Irene Homesis deeply rooted in the religious faith and the religion practiced in their day-to-day life. The innovative idea conceptualized is being converted into a reality by the versatile board of directors, consisting of clergymen, who are from the top hierarchical orders of the church, as well as the laymen, who are highly educated and have rich professional experience in various fields.
While designing a home for the elderly, the board of directors has been engaged in meticulous planning and a wide range of details were taken into consideration because, at IreneHome, the physical realities of aging should be in tune with the surroundings one lives in. Keen attention is paid to each stage of planning and development to keep the space hurdle-free, enabling them to have easy movement and access, at the same time to the most modern facilities provided, at Irene Homes, helping them to fly like a free bird, enjoying each moment spent here.
