Ashridge

At Ashridge we do everything we can to improve the health and wellbeing of the people we support and as a team we are focused on building positive outcomes for everyone. Our dedicated support team provide 24 hour support and are committed to a high standard of personal care.

Overview of Service

Ashridge offers a high standard of support for people with learning disabilities. In addition to the main house, which supports 12 people, there is a separate bungalow that provides support for 6 people.

Everyone is involved in designing their own Person Centred Plan, with staff support. The plans are tailored to suit individual needs and provide the correct level of support required. They also enable people to make their own choices about the support they receive. We encourage and support everyone at Ashridge to recognise and identify their goals and ambitions and how they would like to go about meeting them.

The team works closely with outside professionals including social services, physiotherapists, speech therapists, occupational therapists and psychologists, and there is good access to local GPs and dentists.
