About Us

We are a small residential care home on Leylands Road in Burgess Hill in West Sussex. We support adults managing mental health conditions and younger adults, and we offer respite stays for people whose usual home is elsewhere.

Supporting mental health in a residential setting is largely a matter of steadiness rather than intervention. We keep to arrangements we have made. We notice when somebody seems unlike themselves without turning it into an interrogation. We make it easy to talk to us without a formal appointment, and we are as reliable on the difficult weeks as on the good ones. Progress is rarely a straight line and our job is not to be surprised by that.

Being a small house helps with all of it. Everybody knows everybody, nobody gets lost in a system, and the week can genuinely be arranged around the people living here.

This is their home and we treat it accordingly. Rooms are theirs to arrange. People decide how their days go, who they see, whether they want company or their own space. We knock before we come in, we ask rather than assume, and we are quite prepared to be disagreed with.

The Care Quality Commission rated us good at our most recent inspection.
