Old Fox House is a Clubhouse, located in Stowmarket, Suffolk, U.K. Old Fox House is a community-based rehabilitation day programme for people experiencing severe or enduring mental health problems. Members of Old Fox House work in partnership with staff in the work ordered day, undertaking all the work and making all the decisions necessary to operate the Clubhouse. There is also an opportunity to participate in a supported employment scheme, known as Transitional Employment (T.E.). In addition to the work ordered day and T.E., Old Fox House has a very active social programme that operates in evenings, weekends and on public holidays.

Whilst attending the Clubhouse people can learn or regain skills necessary to live productive and fulfilling lives. By participating in the Clubhouse members have an opportunity to increase their confidence and self respect, and to strengthen social, educational and vocational skills.

The three work units listed below provide a wide range of involvement. All the work of the club is co-ordinated within these units on a voluntary basis.

Old Fox House gained a three year certification from the I.C.C.D. and was one of the UK runners up in the 1995/6 Golden Helix Award for Quality in European Health Care.
