WEAVERS LODGE
Castle Cary, Somerset
Weavers Lodge is a specialist service based in Somerset, supporting adults with learning disabilities and complex needs.
The home is nestled on the edge of rolling countryside, conveniently situated in a quiet, no-through road yet only a minute walk to the bustling High Street with all its local amenities. Weavers Lodge dates back to the 18th Century and sits in the heart of Castle Cary, Somerset.
Weavers Lodge delivers 8 large beautiful bedrooms with a garden or countryside view, all with ensuite facilities and with access to a range of communal spaces.
Six bedrooms are for permanent residents and we also have two stunning self-contained studios.
The interior designers have mindfully designed the furniture and fixtures for challenging environments, which includes a variety of safe, robust and anti-ligature features.
This specialist autism design is exactly fit for purpose in transforming challenging environments into a homely feel.
"As a service, we wish to support individuals with learning disabilities and complex needs, that may also include a dual mental health diagnosis. The service will enable their successful transition through person centred and needs led assessment, to understand the individuals we support, to best meet their needs."
