THE WILLOWS

Warminster

Untitled design (7)

The Willows is a residential home for adults who have learning disabilities and complex needs, including behaviours that may challenge, autism and other associated issues.

The Willows is a handsome, well-proportioned Victorian house located in the heart of Warminster. It provides generous accommodation for up to ten people over three floors and is situated in beautiful, private landscaped gardens.

We believe that anyone living at The Willows should have the same care and opportunities as they would in their own home. That’s why we recognise, respect and support individuality, encouraging people to take as much control of their lives and decision making as they can, while offering care, support and guidance.

Our specialist team are experts in person-centred assistance and our range of services and strategies can help individuals to manage complex behaviours effectively.

All staff working at the service undertake accredited Positive Behaviour Support training.

 

Individualised support

Support at The Willows is precisely tailored to the needs and wishes of the individual. We try to achieve not only what is important for someone but also what is important to him or her. This holistic approach is very person-centred and promotes positive outcomes and development of skills for life and leisure.

We work with individuals, and those significant in their lives, to set - and achieve - short, medium, and long term goals. These change over time, so our support plans are regularly reviewed and updated as necessary.

 

"It's a joy to work with a fantastic team for the benefit and well-being of their residents. Congratulations on everything and the quality of the services offered. A place where private life is beautifully combined with the attention and care given by well-trained people."
