Elyn Ward – Women’s Low Secure

Gender: Female

Age: 18+

Beds: 15

Based at Cygnet Delfryn House, Elyn Ward is a 15-bed service that will support women with a mental illness in a low secure setting. Elyn Ward will be opening in early 2027.

Using a compassionate therapeutic approach, our team will provide specialist support to the women in our care to promote recovery, manage mental ill health and enhance their daily living skills.

Our highly experienced teams include both Welsh and English speaking staff to support enhanced comfort, trust and communication. Working collaboratively, our teams assess individual needs and create bespoke discharge pathways that support a successful transition towards the community.

Located in Flintshire, Cygnet Delfryn House benefits from easy access to beautiful countryside and green spaces, whilst also being within easy reach of a lovely community featuring leisure centres, shops, restaurants and cafés. We also have strong links with local services that can offer educational and vocational opportunities, to build supportive networks and personal confidence.

For the women who require further support before returning to the community, we have Cygnet Delfryn Lodge and Rhyd Alyn, which can offer continued specialist support through a tailored discharge pathway.
