Supporting you
At Falcon Lodge people are encouraged to take charge of their lives, provide feedback, and contribute to the direction of the home, as well as setting and working towards personal goals.
With a very active group of residents, there is a youthful, energetic character to this home and everyone spends a lot of time out of the house. The men who live in this home enjoy attending community events and going on days out such as visiting aquariums, theme parks, sporting events, concerts and clubbing.
They have varied music tastes ranging from R&B and pop dance, to classical. These personal interests fit around their individual structured activities programmes.
