About St Bridget's - Care Home Physical Disabilities
Support for people with physical disabilities is the defining focus of St Bridget's, a residential care home registered for older people, learning disabilities, physical disabilities and younger adults. Its name descriptor identifies the service directly as a care home for physical disabilities.
St Bridget's forms part of Leonard Cheshire’s wider care and accommodation services for disabled people, including residential care, supported living and respite care. The organisation aims to help disabled people live, learn and work as independently as they choose. This gives the home a disability-focused role rather than a general older-person setting.
