Hill Farm

This small residential care home supports five people with learning disabilities, including those with sensory impairments and autism, with capacity for up to nine residents. The service operates from a larger house than typical domestic properties, but the building design effectively mitigates any negative impacts. One bedroom has been converted into a sensory room, and the provider plans further modifications to align with best practice guidance. Staff are discouraged from wearing uniforms when accompanying people in the community, promoting integration and reducing stigma.

The home demonstrates commitment to maximising residents' choice, control and independence. The service is working to ensure autistic people and those with learning disabilities have access to the dignity, independence and community integration that others take for granted.
