EXCEPTIONAL CARE FOR ADULTS WITH LEARNING DISABILITIES SINCE 1987

THE PONTESBURY PROJECT offerS domiciliary care for people with severe learning disabilities.

Based in the Shropshire hills, we strive to create a tight-knit community where every individual is valued and each voice heard.

WHAT DOES THE PONTESBURY PROJECT DO?

For over a decade, The Pontesbury Protect has provided high-quality care in a compassionate environment.

The people we support live in their own homes with one-to-one support around the clock.

We currently manage eleven residences, with each house adapted to its resident’s individual needs and preferences.

RATED ‘GOOD’ BY THE CARE QUALITY COMMISSION

We received a ‘good’ rating for safety, effectiveness, quality of care, responsiveness, and leadership.

WHERE ARE WE?

Our residences are located in Rea Valley, eight miles in south of Shrewsbury in an area of outstanding natural beauty. We are only an hour’s drive from Birmingham.

16 August 2021Just over four years ago I came to the Pontesbury Project, leading to a better and more independent life. I was in a wheelchair for many years, but with their step-by-step support, I slowly but surely got rid of it. I was so happy that I did. I had determination to live a better life. I have three housemates I enjoy the company of, one of whom I knew when we were younger. It still took a while to settle in, but I was and still am happy here. There have been some downs, but I always get myself back up with help from staff. We have various staff who all deeply care about us. I have had differences with them but always find a way to unite again. We can be socially interactive with them and they take us out for various activities like walking, football, swimming, and eating out.

I have laughs with housemates and staff, and even sometimes people that work in the office. It’s a safe place to be, with plenty of lovely views of the countryside. Four years on, I’m progressing to where I thought I would never be. [...] Read more...
