About Walsingham Support - 1 Ashley Close
Walsingham Support helps adults with learning disabilities, autism, brain injuries and complex needs through residential care, supported living and transition support. The charity works with individuals and families to build life skills, strengthen relationships and develop the abilities needed for the next stage of life.
Support can range from a few hours each week to 24-hour, seven-day assistance, with personal plans shaped around the individual rather than a standard service. Residential homes provide private bedrooms and staff on site around the clock, while transition support can help younger people move towards adult services. Direct contact is possible without a council referral.
