Our service at a glance
Dene Brook is split into 8 apartments allowing individuals to live either on their own or in small groups. We have two 3-bed placements, two 2-bed placements and four 1-bed placements, one of which is located in the grounds of Dene Brook and has its own garden and front door. Each of the apartments have a lounge, kitchen and dining facilities and the shared living areas all have en-suite toilets with a shared bathroom. In addition, we also have an activity room, laundry room and a sensory room for all individuals to access. Externally we have a patio area and an extensive secure grassed garden with plenty of space for playing games/sports and a seating area allowing for summer entertaining.
Dene Brook is located in Dalton Parva, a lovely village in the suburbs of Rotherham. At the end of the road there are buses that take you direct to either Rotherham or Sheffield where there is an abundance of community facilities that you would expect from a major town or city. In the local village, there are shops, pubs, cafés and beautiful countryside.
The people we support are encouraged to be involved in the local community as much or as little as they wish to be.
In conjunction with the other local Cygnet residential services, we have some great projects that individuals can attend regularly including bakery, gardening, and textiles projects.
