The Woodlands

The Woodlands is a purpose built, five bedroomed home situated in the grounds of Overley Hall. It is a small group home for adults with a range of complex, high support needs including autism and severe learning disabilities.

Our approach for adult provision follows our ethos of person-centred active support to maintain a high quality of life that enables adults to reach their highest level of independence through tailored daily programmes of activities, chosen by each individual, designed to support and encourage personal achievement, aspirations and interests.

Residents of The Woodlands all have personalised weekly schedules which incorporate a range of activities chosen by each individual. This may include: college courses, Identity School of Dance, work experience, horse riding, social activities, family visits, participating in /spectating sports, structured exercise, day outings, short breaks and holidays. Each resident is offered a level of support appropriate to their personal needs; this is provided by a dedicated team of staff.
