History
St Loye's Foundation and its subsidiary Community Care Trust merged in 2015 because of increasing recognition of the links between support for people with disabilities and mental health conditions.[citation needed]
Elizabeth II was patron of St Loye's Foundation and supported the charity from 1946.[2]
The charity ran Cypress Independent Hospital until it closed in 2018.[3]
