Supporting You

Our skilled team provides 24-hour support, using a person-centred approach to ensure you’re always at the heart of everything we do. We’re committed to empowering you to live the life you choose, promoting your independence by supporting you to develop daily living skills.

We encourage you to integrate into the local community – whether through volunteering opportunities, accessing college courses, engaging in meaningful activities, or attending health appointments. We also advocate for your voice to be heard, ensuring your choices and aspirations guide our support.

Together, we enjoy shopping trips, walks around the park, going to the zoo, arts and crafts, bingo, watching our favourite movies at the cinema, and much more!

Facilities

Our stunning home features eight spacious bedrooms, four on the ground floor and four on the first floor. Two bedrooms benefit from their own en-suite facilities, while several others offer charming views of the garden or the park.

Built with accessibility in mind, we have wet rooms, hoists, and adjustable beds, making it accessible for those with mobility needs.

Our modern décor and comfortable communal areas create a homely feel, with a large kitchen-diner and a cosy lounge where you can relax and socialise with other housemates. Outside, we have a generous garden with a beautiful pond – a perfect spot to unwind and relax. We even have a fruit and vegetable patch for you to get stuck into!
