The service supports older and younger adults who have physical disabilities, people living with dementia, people with a learning disability, autistic people and people with mental health conditions. At the time of our inspection 1 person was receiving the regulated activity of personal care. We inspected the service against ‘Right Support, Right Care, Right Culture’ guidance to make judgements about whether the provider guaranteed people with a learning disability and autistic people respect, equality, dignity, choices, independence and good access to local communities that most people take for granted.
