Jacqueline’s Journey
Read Jacqueline’s blog about her journey with Cygnet Social Care services.
Individuals are supported to hold their own tenancy agreement with a registered housing association. Individuals who are interested in living here may have previously been detained within a hospital setting and are ready for a step-down placement within the local community.
Situated in the heart of the community in Leeds, the service has 14 single occupancy apartments and 4 single occupancy bungalows, with their own outdoor space and good transport links to community facilities.
Offering experienced, trained staff twenty-four hours a day, the service benefits from a shared core staffing team.
Each tenant is allocated an experienced and consistent staff team and training is bespoke to individual support needs which enables tenants to live as independently and safely as possible.
People we support:
- Diagnosis of learning disability and / or autism
