About Ordinary Life Project Association - 15 Mossmead
We are a residential care home at Mossmead in Chippenham, Wiltshire, run by the Ordinary Life Project Association. The name tells you what we are for. The people living here include older people and younger adults, people with a learning disability or autism, people living with dementia, people with a physical disability, people with sight or hearing loss and people managing mental health conditions. Respite stays are available. An ordinary life is the point. Having your own room and your own things. Deciding when to get up and what to eat. Doing your own shopping, managing your own money, getting to a club or a course or a job, seeing family and friends when you want to. Support here is about making those things possible rather than doing them for people, and we are careful about that distinction, because independence is quietly worn away by help that arrives too quickly. Communication matters a great deal to us. Not everybody here uses many words, and understanding somebody properly takes time, attention and a willingness to be corrected rather than assumptions. Plans are written with the person and changed when they stop fitting. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. We keep examining our practice around choice and privacy. If you are considering a place or a respite stay with us, please come and visit and meet the people who live here.
