About Heart of England Mencap - 201 Drayton Avenue
201 Drayton Avenue is a small residential home near Stratford Upon Avon, run by Heart of England Mencap. We support adults with learning disabilities and autistic adults, including younger adults and older residents, and we also offer respite stays. We are a house on an ordinary street and we run it as the residents' home. People choose how their bedrooms look, have a real say in the meals and the shopping, and get involved in cooking, laundry and looking after the place as much as they want to. Support covers personal care where it is needed, medication, health appointments and managing money, and it covers helping people get out to whatever matters to them, whether that is a job, a course, a club, a place of worship or a regular visit to family. Communication is where we put most of our effort. Some people here use speech, others use signs, symbols or a device, and others tell us a great deal through their behaviour. We take the time to learn it, we write down what we learn so it survives a change of staff, and we listen to families and to health colleagues who have known somebody far longer than we have. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Families and professionals are welcome to visit.
