About Hennel Lane

Hennel Lane is a residential care home in Preston. We support older people needing help with daily living, adults who have a learning disability, autistic adults, people with a physical disability and people whose sight or hearing is impaired. We also support some younger adults. Support is agreed with each person rather than handed out. For some it is help with personal care, medication and daily routines. For others it is practical assistance with cooking, laundry, money and appointments. For others again it is mainly having reliable people nearby while they get on with their own interests, work or social life. Where somebody has a physical disability we take the time that moving and transfers properly require, using the right equipment and explaining as we go. Where sight or hearing is impaired we keep belongings where they are expected and make sure we have been understood. For the autistic people we support, notice of change and attention to noise and busyness in shared areas make the greatest difference. Respite stays are available as well as permanent places. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Families across Lancashire are welcome to visit. Please contact us to arrange a time.
