Everyone who lives at Clayton Brook House takes part in a wide range of activities, which help them to develop new skills and have fun. We encourage people to develop their abilities by taking an active part in everyday tasks such as cooking, washing and shopping and learning to socialise by sharing activities with others. We engage with our local community and involve family, friends and everyone important to the people we support. Our Lancashire Centre, based nearby, provides access to even more activities, including sports, dance, art, music and education, all designed for autistic people.

Placement suitability
We do not currently have a placement available at this service.
Current residents are aged between 40 and 45 years old and mostly non-verbal with additional learning disabilities. The placement would suit a male or a female. The house is all on one level and the bedroom has an enusite wet room.
The house is lively and busy but the sensory room and the spacious garden can be quiet areas when required. Peeple living at Clayton Brook enjoy group activites but are supported also 1-1 to ensure quality time for activities that are important to them. The service has experience of supporting people with additional health needs.
In England the regulatory body CQC is ensuring support providers are providing local services for local people. Therefore when we receive a referral from outside of the local authority area where our service is, we need to demonstrate we have taken steps to explore meaningful family links and connections to the area. We would also need a clear rational from the funder as to why an out of county placement is being sought. Therefore not all referrals may be considered for each NAS service.
