About Market Place
Market Place is a residential care home in Coleford, Gloucestershire, supporting adults with learning disabilities and autistic adults, most of them younger 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, written so that they can understand and check it, and reviewed with them rather than decided on their behalf. Most of what makes support work is attention to detail. We learn how somebody communicates, what they enjoy, what unsettles them and what helps when a day starts going 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 ever costs in planning. Moving in should not mean giving up the rest of your life. Residents keep in touch with family and friends, go out, attend college, work or activities, and take up new interests when they want to. Where something looks hard to arrange, we start by asking how to make it work. Respite stays are available so that families can take a planned break. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please contact us if you would like to look round.
