Where you'll work

While we love our surroundings and being part of the local community, we think it's what's inside our home that makes us really special.

For example, we have a lovely sensory room, complete with soft lighting and tactile furnishings for a multi-sensory experience. This is a tranquil area in the heart of the home, which promotes total relaxation.

We've also created our very own pub, with a traditional bar and optics this is a popular spot for residents to catch up with friends over a game of dominoes or cards.

This is a special place because it provides our residents with a real social setting, where they can spend time both together and with their visitors.

It gives them the freedom to pop to the pub and meet people, as they would have done before moving to Meadows House, supporting their independence.
