Little Heath Court is a bespoke service tailored to the needs of young people with autism and/or complex needs to support them in their transition to adulthood and prepare them for more independent living.
Residents and their families are involved in designing each of the home’s self-contained ‘flat-lets’, tailoring the environment to the individual, with assistive technology to help promote independent living skills. Each resident has their own private patio garden with views of the surrounding countryside.
Those living at Little Heath Court also have access to plenty of communal space for leisure and socialising, including two lounges, a sensory room, a creative activity area, and a large garden with a trampoline and wheelchair-accessible nature trail.
Close to the local village of Tilehurst, and the larger town of Reading, the location is ideal for young people looking to build their social networks and access educational and vocational opportunities. Residents enjoy a range of individual and group activities including board games, tapestry-making, reflexology, swimming, cycling, horse riding, country walks and social events like afternoon teas for visiting families. The home has its own transport for local travel and outings further afield.
