About Glenmore Trust - 2 Newton Road

We are a residential home on Newton Road in Penrith, supporting adults with learning disabilities, autistic people, people living with mental health conditions and people with physical disabilities, including younger adults. The house is run as a household rather than a service. Everyone has their own room and their own things, and the week is worked out between the people who live here and the staff supporting them: what is cooked, when the shopping is done, who wants to go out and where to. For adults who have often had decisions taken on their behalf, that ordinary degree of control is central to what we are trying to do. Support is arranged around the individual. For some the priority is staying well and having staff nearby who know them well enough to notice when things are becoming difficult. For others it is about doing more: work, college, volunteering, managing money with a hand from us, or getting out regularly and keeping up with family. Where somebody needs help with personal care or mobility, we give it without taking over more of the task than is necessary. Consistency counts for a great deal, particularly for autistic people, so we keep staffing as settled as we can. Respite stays are available alongside longer places. Our most recent inspection by the Care Quality Commission rated us good overall. Please come and visit and meet the people who live here.
