Overview
Blackberry Hill is a residential care home providing care and support for 10 individuals with epilepsy, autism, learning disabilities and low-level behavioural needs.
Our home is made up of four bedrooms on the ground floor and six bedrooms on the first floor, all equipped with bespoke en-suite bathrooms that have been carefully crafted for the people we support. We have plenty of communal areas such as a conservatory, dining room, sensory room, art room, garden area, and a lounge that features a large cinema screen! Our home also has a single occupancy lift, which is accessible for the people we support to use independently.
Our home is within close proximity to local shops, a pharmacy, and the Post Office. There are also nearby basketball courts, a park and a playing field, which are perfect for keeping the people we support active. We have access to great transport links via train, used by those wanting to explore further afield. We also have two in-house vehicles available, so the people we support can enjoy trips around the local area.
