About Tranquil Cross

Tranquil Cross is a small residential home in Camborne. We support adults with learning disabilities and autistic adults, and we offer respite stays. Being small is the point rather than a limitation. This is a house and it feels like one. People have their own space and their own belongings, and the household is run with the people who live in it rather than around them. Meals, shopping, laundry and how the place looks are all decisions people take part in, because independence grows out of doing things rather than being told about them. We plan support around what each person wants from their life rather than around a timetable that suits the rota. That might be help with cooking and managing money, support to keep a college place or a job, assistance to travel independently, or somebody alongside on a difficult day. For autistic people we pay close attention to sensory needs and flag changes well in advance, because unexpected change is usually the hardest part. Communication takes different forms here and we learn each person's, whether speech, signing, pictures, objects or the particular way somebody shows they have had enough. Our staff are trained in positive behaviour support and we keep the team consistent. Cornwall is a rural county, so we put real effort into transport and into helping people keep up with friends, groups and activities further afield. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please get in touch if you would like to look round.
