About 17 York Avenue
17 York Avenue is a small residential care home in the Bury area of Greater Manchester. We support adults with a learning disability, autistic adults, people managing mental health conditions and younger adults, and we work in a way that is deliberately domestic rather than institutional. Because we are small, the team know each person well, which matters enormously when someone communicates in their own way or when a change in mood is the first sign that something is wrong. We build support around how a person actually lives, not around a set routine, and we look for the ordinary opportunities for people to take on more for themselves, from cooking and shopping to getting out locally and keeping up with the things they enjoy. We also offer respite stays, for people who need somewhere comfortable for a short while and for families who need a rest. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission was requires improvement, and we would rather be plain about that than let anyone discover it later. We have taken the findings seriously and our attention has gone to the things that shape daily life in the house rather than to paperwork alone. If you are considering a placement here, please visit, talk to the team and ask us directly what has changed and how we know it is holding.
