Corner House is a large detached property that offers tailored and personalised support plans to four ladies. This home is only suitable for females, at present.

All people that live within this home, do so under a direct payment, which is managed by their families. There are regular family meetings and a real sense of circle of support approaches.

Promoting independence and supporting individuals to access further education, employment, social and recreational activities.

Person-centred transition plans are developed for each individual to develop their budgeting skills and to become more independent in all areas of their lives. At the Corner House we support individuals with learning disabilities and or autism. Our enabling, self-empowering approach is tailored to meet individual aspirations, ensuring a high level of customer satisfaction. The main focus here is to reduce people’s dependence on traditional services, and intergrade more within the local community.

I began my career in the care sector at the age of 19 after family circumstances at that time showed me the outstanding work that Carers do to help someone in need. It also highlighted to me and my family the importance of support not only to the person in need but to the families of the individual.
