According to local tradition, it is said that the African Kaberi regiment was stationed here. After independence in 1948, during the tenure of Prime Minister D. S. Senanayake, it was maintained as a main base for the implementation of the Anuradhapura District Development Scheme by the Department of Engineering. From mid-1951 until June 1952, due to renovation work at Anuradhapura Central College, several classes were temporarily conducted at this location for a period of one year.<\/p><p>In July 1952, the institution was officially established as a government elders\u2019 home. At its inception, it was known as \u201cMahalumadama,\u201d later renamed \u201cMahalu Niwasaya,\u201d and currently it is recognized as the Elders\u2019 Home. At the beginning of 1952, it was an institution managed by the Government Department of Social Services. After the adoption of the 13th Amendment to the Constitution in 1987 and the establishment of the Provincial Council system, it has been operated under the administration of the North Central Provincial Department of Social Services.<\/p><p><strong>Vision<\/strong><\/p><p>\u201cA Pleasant Home Filled with Happiness\u201d<\/p><p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Mission<\/strong><\/span><\/p><p>\u201cTransforming from an elderly care center\u2014where residents\u2019 dignity is nurtured, and their physical and mental well-being is elevated to a high standard\u2014into a training and social research center, enabling seniors to live their later years with freedom and fulfillment.\u201d<\/p><div class=\"jmb-postcontent jmb-postcontent-0 clearfix\"><div class=\"jmb-article\"><p data-start=\"0\" data-end=\"18\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong data-start=\"0\" data-end=\"16\">Our Services<\/strong><\/span><\/p><p data-start=\"20\" data-end=\"99\"><strong data-start=\"20\" data-end=\"28\">Care<\/strong><br data-start=\"28\" data-end=\"31\" \/>Providing care for elderly persons in society who have no support.<\/p><p data-start=\"101\" data-end=\"183\"><strong data-start=\"101\" data-end=\"113\">Training<\/strong><br data-start=\"113\" data-end=\"116\" \/>Functioning as a practical training center related to elder care.<\/p><p data-start=\"185\" data-end=\"286\"><strong data-start=\"185\" data-end=\"198\">Education<\/strong><br data-start=\"198\" data-end=\"201\" \/>Operating as a center that facilitates educational activities in the health sector.<\/p><p data-start=\"288\" data-end=\"401\"><strong data-start=\"288\" data-end=\"313\">Spiritual Development<\/strong><br data-start=\"313\" data-end=\"316\" \/>Acting as a center for spiritual development for school and Sunday school students.<\/p><p data-start=\"403\" data-end=\"489\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\"><strong data-start=\"403\" data-end=\"425\">Facility Provision<\/strong><br data-start=\"425\" data-end=\"428\" \/>Serving as a center that provides facilities for benefactors.<\/p><ul><li>\u00a0<\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div><\/article><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-tab-title elementor-tab-mobile-title\" aria-selected=\"false\" data-tab=\"3\" role=\"tab\" tabindex=\"-1\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-1633\" aria-expanded=\"false\">Bulnewa \u201cSupasan\u201d Home for Retired Elders<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-1633\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix\" data-tab=\"3\" role=\"tabpanel\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-1633\" tabindex=\"0\" hidden=\"hidden\"><article class=\"jmb-post\"><div class=\"jmb-postcontent jmb-postcontent-0 clearfix\"><div class=\"jmb-article\"><p><span style=\"color: #333333;\"><strong>Responsibility: <\/strong><\/span>Officer-in-Charge<\/p><p>\u201cSupasan Niwas\u201d in Mawanellya stands as a testament to the generous donation made by the Dutch National Association, constructed under the patronage of the Sinhala Society of Mawanellya.

According to local tradition, it is said that the African Kaberi regiment was stationed here. After independence in 1948, during the tenure of Prime Minister D. S. Senanayake, it was maintained as a main base for the implementation of the Anuradhapura District Development Scheme by the Department of Engineering. From mid-1951 until June 1952, due to renovation work at Anuradhapura Central College, several classes were temporarily conducted at this location for a period of one year.<\/p><p>In July 1952, the institution was officially established as a government elders\u2019 home. At its inception, it was known as \u201cMahalumadama,\u201d later renamed \u201cMahalu Niwasaya,\u201d and currently it is recognized as the Elders\u2019 Home. At the beginning of 1952, it was an institution managed by the Government Department of Social Services. After the adoption of the 13th Amendment to the Constitution in 1987 and the establishment of the Provincial Council system, it has been operated under the administration of the North Central Provincial Department of Social Services.<\/p><p><strong>Vision<\/strong><\/p><p>\u201cA Pleasant Home Filled with Happiness\u201d<\/p><p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Mission<\/strong><\/span><\/p><p>\u201cTransforming from an elderly care center\u2014where residents\u2019 dignity is nurtured, and their physical and mental well-being is elevated to a high standard\u2014into a training and social research center, enabling seniors to live their later years with freedom and fulfillment.\u201d<\/p><div class=\"jmb-postcontent jmb-postcontent-0 clearfix\"><div class=\"jmb-article\"><p data-start=\"0\" data-end=\"18\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong data-start=\"0\" data-end=\"16\">Our Services<\/strong><\/span><\/p><p data-start=\"20\" data-end=\"99\"><strong data-start=\"20\" data-end=\"28\">Care<\/strong><br data-start=\"28\" data-end=\"31\" \/>Providing care for elderly persons in society who have no support.<\/p><p data-start=\"101\" data-end=\"183\"><strong data-start=\"101\" data-end=\"113\">Training<\/strong><br data-start=\"113\" data-end=\"116\" \/>Functioning as a practical training center related to elder care.<\/p><p data-start=\"185\" data-end=\"286\"><strong data-start=\"185\" data-end=\"198\">Education<\/strong><br data-start=\"198\" data-end=\"201\" \/>Operating as a center that facilitates educational activities in the health sector.<\/p><p data-start=\"288\" data-end=\"401\"><strong data-start=\"288\" data-end=\"313\">Spiritual Development<\/strong><br data-start=\"313\" data-end=\"316\" \/>Acting as a center for spiritual development for school and Sunday school students.<\/p><p data-start=\"403\" data-end=\"489\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\"><strong data-start=\"403\" data-end=\"425\">Facility Provision<\/strong><br data-start=\"425\" data-end=\"428\" \/>Serving as a center that provides facilities for benefactors.<\/p><ul><li>\u00a0<\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div><\/article><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-tab-title elementor-tab-mobile-title\" aria-selected=\"false\" data-tab=\"3\" role=\"tab\" tabindex=\"-1\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-1943\" aria-expanded=\"false\">Bulnewa \u201cSupasan\u201d Home for Retired Elders<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-1943\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix\" data-tab=\"3\" role=\"tabpanel\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-1943\" tabindex=\"0\" hidden=\"hidden\"><article class=\"jmb-post\"><div class=\"jmb-postcontent jmb-postcontent-0 clearfix\"><div class=\"jmb-article\"><p><span style=\"color: #333333;\"><strong>Responsibility: <\/strong><\/span>Officer-in-Charge<\/p><p>\u201cSupasan Niwas\u201d in Mawanellya stands as a testament to the generous donation made by the Dutch National Association, constructed under the patronage of the Sinhala Society of Mawanellya.
