Individuals living at 182 Ashby Road are supported by a dedicated and knowledgeable staff team who encourage each person to identify their personal goals and plan ways of achieving these. It is a busy and active service offering people the chance to access their local community in order to increase their independence. Individuals are also supported to improve their skills in daily living tasks from budgeting and personal finances to household chores and health care needs and to gradually take more personal responsibility for each of these areas.

The service is a large period property located in a quiet residential area on the outskirts of Burton-upon-Trent. The house has a large rear garden and has excellent access to public transport and local amenities.

The long term aim for people in this service is a move on to more independent living if they so choose.
