About Us

The Mount is a care home in Barrow upon Humber. We provide residential care for adults with a learning disability and autistic adults, both younger adults and older people, and we offer respite stays alongside permanent places.

This is a house, and it is meant to feel like one. The people living here decide what goes on the shopping list, what gets cooked, how their rooms look and how they spend their time. Some go out to work or to college, some use local groups and facilities, and some prefer a quieter week with a few things they enjoy properly. We do not rank those.

Something we pay attention to is what happens as people get older. Needs change with age for everybody, and for somebody with a learning disability those changes are too often missed or put down to the disability itself. We watch for that and act on it.

Being in a village has its advantages. People here are known locally as individuals rather than as residents of somewhere, and we try to keep that connection alive.

Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good.

Families and social workers are welcome to visit and ask us whatever matters to them.
