About Orion House
Orion House offers specialist residential support for younger adults with learning disabilities, autism and challenging behaviour. The seven-bedroom home sits within Linton Support’s wider community service, which helps adults living with families or independently access activities, appointments and local services.
Support is organised around individual assessments, personal behaviour support plans and risk assessments. Staff use a calm, low-arousal approach around anxiety, sensory overload and transitions, with one-to-one support available where necessary. Residents can develop practical skills through cooking and horticulture, while community activities encourage independence and social inclusion.

As a guide, Devon council paid on average £1,895 a week for a residential care place for adults aged 18 to 64 in 2024-2025, against £1,883 across England (GOV.UK adult social care finance report). People who pay for their own care are usually charged more than councils pay.
