Overview
Hillcrest is the main residential hub within the Hillcrest & Lyndale group and provides a more dynamic, staffed environment for adults with learning disabilities who may have more complex support needs. The service is structured but lively, offering 24-hour support that balances safety with meaningful independence. Hillcrest places strong emphasis on person-centred care, positive behaviour support, and promoting life skills, while enabling individuals to take part in community activities, appointments, social opportunities, and day services such as Garden Base. Staff work closely with families, health professionals, and social care teams to ensure care is responsive and well-coordinated, and the overall ethos of Hillcrest is one of stability, engagement, and supporting people to live fulfilled, active lives in a safe and supportive home.
