Here at Linford Grange they welcome younger adults with a range of conditions and diagnoses. The service is made up of studio flats (apartments on the first floor), en-suite bedrooms (on the ground floor), and 5 independent flats to the rear or the main property.

Linford Grange combines effective, dynamic support with life skills training, self-development, and for some people; transitional support to re-enable them back into more independent living. Some residents are here longer term, benefiting from a team of well-trained staff specialising in younger adults with diagnoses such as learning disabilities, lower level mental health, acquired brain injury, autism, dual diagnosis and associated health conditions.

Each support package is individually tailored to a client's needs incorporating additional one to one support as required.

They have Activity Workers who enthuse the residents in engaging in both one to one and group activities across the week. They get to know everyone and what they like, and endeavour to support them in leading a fulfilling and meaningful life to suit their choice and needs.

They work closely with the multi-professional team to ensure they train staff in specialist subjects, and continually liaise to ensure that residents get the best support across the board.

Please do not hesitate to get in contact and have a chat about your needs!

Review from Kerri M (Daughter of Resident) published on 5 September 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I highly recommend Linford Grange. It's a wonderful care home with a very homely feel. All of the staff are absolutely brilliant at what they do. They make time to get to know the residents and provide a person-centred approach to the individual needs of their residents. My mother's room is so cosy,
full of her personal touches, has a lovely view of a field out the back and is kept extremely clean every day. The personal care, food and laundry service is exceptional. There are lots of activities for the residents to enjoy including weekly exercise, visits from animals, singers and arts and crafts for entertainment as well as BBQ's which include the family and friends of the home. Me and my mother feel very at home at Linford Grange. I am completely reassured having met most, if not all of the staff (including the new ones), that my mother is safe and well cared for. The new mural on the wall makes it very magical to have found such a wonderful home with such a lovely team.

Review from J D (Wife of Resident) published on 30 June 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
As a wife it is always difficult to find the right home from home, but I think with Linford Grange it is as near as I can get! It has a lovely, homely feel and even has a beautiful peaceful garden for relaxing in! It is in a super location being close to a busy High Street with a variety of shops, and
public transport. The rooms are spacious, the laundry excellent and the food is of restaurant quality. The care is provided by a dedicated team of staff who look after my husband very well. There are activities and social opportunities. Fully recommended.

Friendly, caring and amazing staff. Assisted in getting my aunt from London, enabling better access and more time to visit. Rooms are lovely, always updating or redecorating as required. Easy access to the local shops and lovely location.
Fully recommend Linford Grange.

Review from Julie S (Respite Resident) published on 5 December 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The bedroom that I am in is excellent as well as the ensuite toilet and shower. I have a room with a view. I enjoy the activities; keep fit and the musician. Meals are most enjoyable and very nutritious, and I love the garden, which is amazing, peaceful, and pretty (my secret garden). Wheelchair access
is excellent. The laundry service is 5-star luxury. The environment is extremely relaxing and sociable, as well as safe. A thoroughly enjoyable stay, thank you.

Review from Barbara H (Mother of Resident) published on 23 April 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
I have already submitted a review of Linford Grange but I really feel that another one is deserved. Linford Grange has established a very happy life for our son. As his illness slowly is nudging forward, they constantly try their very utmost and succeed to grow and change with him. He is so very happy
there. A few days ago we all came back from a great holiday which he really enjoyed but the sense of relaxation, familiarity and comfort were obvious when he arrived back at Linford Grange. This is a testament to the very committed and hard work that the staff put into making this happen. My husband and I now feel a very sincere connection to Linford Grange and the staff, who are an extended and trusted family. We really do genuinely recommend considering this care home for your loved one. We are very picky and would not have our son anywhere that was not right for him. Honestly, thank you all at Linford Grange for your genuine, conscientious and caring hard work.

I am writing this review as a recipient of care in my own home. The care staff who looked after me have been hard-working, very caring and very friendly. On the negative side, some staff could improve time-keeping.

Excellent care home with brilliant staff, excellent food and a great ‘social hours’ or ‘one-to-one’ hours service. Would definitely recommend. I wish I had never left!
