Meadowbeck

Meadowbeck is a specialist adult-supported living service which has been developed to enable people with learning disabilities, including those with autism, physical disabilities, complex needs and behaviours that challenge to live happy, healthy, safe lives and to achieve their full potential. This service aims to deliver individually designed care and support to enable people to lead independent, meaningful lives as active members of the community. We work in partnership with the people we support, their family and friends and will encourage their active involvement, ensuring their views and comments are listened to and acted upon.

Our experienced and well-trained staff provide individualised care and a clear Positive Behavioural Support pathway to promote independence and choice. We recognise that a good quality of life, an excellent quality environment, and building self-esteem are paramount for people with complex needs. There is a universal commitment within the whole of Glenholme to treat those we support and their families with dignity and respect.

Meadowbeck is a purpose-built specialist home, designed to better support the needs of people who have profound and severe needs and risks related to behaviours that may challenge; including those that have previously experienced difficulties with finding suitable long-term placements, or a breakdown of placements with other providers who were unable to meet their complex needs. These often relate to their learning disability, autism spectrum disorder, personality disorder, self-injury and aggression. We support the individual to gain confidence and feel safe with the people working with them. We create a package of support that is based on a community-inclusive outlook in their local area and work with the support networks of the individual to maintain the crucial links that promote positive well-being and control for the individual.

Completed in 2022, Meadowbeck consists of eight studio flats. Designed to cater to its residents’ needs; the home features large communal living areas and activity rooms, and low arousal interiors. Each resident has their own kitchenettes and bathrooms as well as access to communal areas and a large shared kitchen.

Meadowbeck is situated in a quiet neighbourhood on the outskirts of the old market town Sleaford and is within walking distance of local amenities, including supermarkets, gyms with swimming facilities, pubs, cafes and restaurants, a library, and parks. The area also boasts plenty of idyllic walking routes along waterways, around lakes, or in local small woodland areas. Specialist learning disability clubs are also located a train ride or a short distance away including access to local learning disability nightclub/disco.
