This is my home. I like living here, I feel safe. I enjoy going bowling and to the pictures. I have recently redecorated my room, and we went for a Marvel theme – I love it

Life at Stroud Lodge

Stroud Lodge is full of warmth, respect and love.

From the moment you walk in, you can feel the compassion and care that fills every space. It’s truly a place where everyone is valued for who they are and supported to life live to the fullest. Everyone here is encouraged to have goals and dreams – we’re here every step of the way to support and celebrate you!

Stroud Lodge is full of colour and personality. With cosy lounges, hallways filled with pictures from our adventures (there’s so many we could double as an art gallery!) and even a media and disco room where we love to sing and dance together. Our calming Book Nook is the perfect spot for a quieter moment to read or draw, or you can build your life and money skills in ‘Stroud’s Boutique’. The beautiful garden is filled with flowers, homemade decorations and our very own veg patch.

Family means a huge amount to us and our door is always open, whether it’s for a cuppa, lunch or to be there for the special moments.

What we love doing at Stroud Lodge

At home, we love partying, disco nights and movie evenings – there’s always something to look forward to!

Every day brings a new opportunity to explore, learn and have fun. Days out might include bike rides (on our adapted bikes!), the theatre or the cinema. We enjoy visiting the Butterfly Centre to learn life skills through music, arts and crafts, recycling projects and cooking – some of us also take part in the Gardening for Wellbeing course at Gloucester Cathedral.

We’re also proud to be such a big part of our local community. We grow fruit and vegetables at the community allotment, then take them to the Friendship Café to help cook meals and chat with visitors as part of the Community Share Scheme.

What makes Stroud Lodge special

1

We’re all about bringing different traditions and experiences to life – we’ve even had a Jamaican Christmas!

2

Our home is designed for both calm and connection: from our boutique shop for building money and life skills, to our calm Book Nook and lively media room.

3

Every person is empowered to lead their own life, with support that’s understanding, nurturing and devoted.

Local area

Stroud Lodge sits in a residential area yet you can still easily escape to the countryside or jump into the hustle and bustle of city life. There’s lots of cafés, shops and local spots to explore and being so well-connected means we can hop on a bus or train and go anywhere we fancy! 

We’re just two miles from Gloucester city centre, with easy bus routes to Stroud, Cheltenham and beyond. Jump in the car and you can head straight to the Cotswolds, with stunning scenery and nature walks. The train station is close by too, making day trips and adventures simple. 

It’s the best of both worlds – surrounded by nature but close to all the excitement of the city.
