Overview

Introducing Mill Lane
Mill Lane is a 24-hour residential home for five adults designed to support people with physical disabilities, PMLD, autism, and complex needs. We support people living in Mill Lane to lead active lives in which their individuality, independence, dignity, and respect are maintained. We fully embrace person centred planning, ensuring the person we support is at the centre in the delivery of our high-quality care and support.

The people we support who live at Mill Lane are encouraged to participate in a wide range of activities of their interest. These include accessing the community to attend activities such as bowling, cinema, swimming, trips out to places of interest like Brighton/Blackpool, holidays abroad have included Disney World Paris and cruise to Norway. Indoor activities include arts and crafts sessions, music therapy, and aromatherapy.
