About Mansgrove Farm House
Mansgrove Farm House is a residential home near Dunstable supporting adults with a learning disability, autistic adults, people living with mental ill health, and people with physical disabilities or sight and hearing loss. Most of the people here are younger adults. We keep the house calm and plan around the individual rather than running the place to one routine. People choose how their own room looks, join in with shopping and cooking if they want to, and have a genuine say in how the household runs. Routines that need to stay exactly the same are kept that way without anybody making an issue of it, because predictability is often what allows a person to relax enough to try something new. Support is agreed with each person using whatever way of communicating already works for them, and we take the trouble to learn it properly rather than guessing. Where physical disability or sensory loss is part of the picture, we pay attention to the practical detail so that the house works for somebody rather than against them. Where mental ill health is involved, we work closely with community teams and involve the person in decisions. Respite stays are available. Our most recent rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please get in touch if you would like to visit.
