Supporting You

Our team is dedicated to delivering high-quality care and support through a person-centred approach tailored to your individual needs.

We are committed to working in ways that suit your interests, goals and aspirations, helping you lead a meaningful and fulfilling life.

We encourage and empower you to live life on your own terms, engaging in hobbies and activities that inspire you and bring happiness. We encourage active involvement within the local community and support participation in college courses where desired. Some of our current housemates take part in courses around living skills, cookery, animal care and computer skills.

Facilities

Our home has two en-suite double bedrooms and four self-contained apartments. These apartments have been designed to help those who are ready to gain more independence.

The property is wheelchair accessible, and adaptations can be made to the service to meet individuals’ needs. We also have a number of communal areas such as a lounge, kitchen, large dining room and a spacious garden.

We’re expanding our provision to include two new self-contained apartments on the first floor, specifically designed to support people with enhanced and complex needs. With private access, the apartments have been designed to an enhanced specification, including robust and anti-tamper fixtures and fittings, while maintaining a homely feel. There is also access to a private garden for those who want to enjoy the sunshine and fresh air.
