About Housing 21 - Mere View

Housing 21 provides care and support for people living in their own apartments at Mere View in Stowmarket, with staff on site rather than travelling between visits. That makes a real difference, because help can be there when it is needed rather than only at a planned time. For older people we help with washing and dressing, medication, meals, laundry, shopping and getting out and about, and we keep an eye on the wider picture, raising changes in appetite, mood or steadiness early. For people living with dementia we keep familiar faces involved, work with the routine that already suits the person and avoid unnecessary change. We support adults with a learning disability and autistic adults, where the emphasis falls on independence and on communication that suits the individual, and adults with mental health needs, where a calm and reliable presence does most of the good. For people with a physical disability we help with moving safely and managing as independently as possible, and where somebody has sight or hearing loss we adapt how we communicate. We also support younger adults. Having your own front door matters, and we try never to forget that this is somebody's home first. Support is agreed with the person and reviewed as things change. Please contact us if you would like to know more.
