About Us

Lynwood House is a small residential home in Radstock supporting adults with a learning disability and autistic adults. Keeping the house small is deliberate. It means everybody knows each other, the atmosphere stays calm, and staff notice quickly when somebody is not quite themselves.

This is a home rather than a setting. People choose how their own room looks, join in with the shopping and cooking if they want to, and have a genuine say in how the household runs. Routines are built around the individual, including the ones that need to stay exactly the same, because predictability is often what allows a person to relax enough to try something new.

We agree support with each person using whatever way of communicating already works for them, and we take the trouble to learn it properly rather than guessing. Being understood is the foundation of everything else.

Life here is meant to include the world outside. People get out to activities, to see family, to places that have become part of the week, and we provide as much or as little support as that actually takes.

Respite stays are available too, giving family carers a break while their relative stays somewhere familiar. Our most recent rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please get in touch if you would like to come and look round.
