roomed semi-detached house on three floors. Many of the bedrooms are en-suite and tenants are encouraged to personalise their private space plus have a shared input into choices concerning communal areas.

Its location offers easy access to Birkenhead and the extensive

There is a small rear paved area which offers a private and secure resource in fine weather when meals are often al-fresco, making use of the bar-b-q.

The house offers a pleasant homely environment with a friendly feel created by tenants and staff alike.

OUTREACH SERVICES
From continual assessment of our service users, the need for semi-independent support services was identified. This service was established for residents who demonstrated a level of independence indicating that they no longer required 24 hour care but still relied upon staff support at varying levels.
This service allows tenants to live in their own flats with support staff offering daily contact and assistance.
Flats are furnished and decorated to a high standard with tenants input where possible.
The level of support is assessed on an individual basis ranging from 2 hours per day to 24 hour staffing if required, with a 24 hour ‘on-call’ service in operation.
Tenants are responsible for their utility charges, domestic chores and all the usual implications of renting a property but have staff support at a level assessed as required to ensure that they do not encounter problems.
