About Woodcock Dell Avenue
Woodcock Dell Avenue is a residential care home in Brent, London, supporting adults with learning disabilities and autistic adults. We run this as a household rather than a service. People choose how they spend their days, take part in cooking, shopping and looking after the house if they want to, and arrange their own rooms. Support is agreed with each person, set out in a way they can understand and check, and reviewed with them rather than decided on their behalf. Most of what makes support work here is attention to detail. We learn how somebody communicates, what they enjoy, what unsettles them and what helps when a day starts to go wrong. For autistic residents we take particular care over predictability, quiet space and clear information about what happens next, which prevents far more difficulty than it costs in planning. London offers a great deal and we make use of it. People go out, see family and friends, attend college, work or activities, and keep up the interests they had before moving in. Where something looks hard to arrange, our first question is how to make it possible. Respite stays are available so that families can take a planned break. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. If you would like to look round, please get in touch and we will arrange a time.
