About the accommodation

Our Gravesend Service has five individual, self-contained flats across three floors. This includes staff and office space as well as a beautiful large private garden. The stylish, newly refurbished flats are built and decorated to our tailored design specification with scope for further adaptations in consideration of individual sensory and behavioural needs.

Purpose-built, each flat has been designed to ensure that our customers are proud to call it home. Each individual living at the service will be supported to maintain their own tenancy provided through Look Ahead Housing.

About the support

Our Gravesend Service provides tailored support to individuals with higher levels of need who require a minimum of 1:1 support throughout the day and night. Each person living here will be supported with their own individualised team who have been recruited and trained in line with individual needs and preferences.

Our support is underpinned by Positive Behavioural Support (PBS) and Active-Support approaches, developed via our organisational partnership with British Institute of Learning Disabilities (BILD).

The spacious, robust environment combined with our specialist model of support ensures we can accommodate people who may require 2:1 or 3:1 support.

The service sits within our hub of specialist support services in Kent, led by a locally-based Area Service Manager experienced in positive behavioural support and active support.
