The WISH Appeal (Where Independence Starts at Home) was launched in April 2005. The initial objective of the appeal was to raise monies to develop existing accommodation into independent living flats. The money for this project was raised in full by 2006. Service users have gained many new skills from the experience of living a more independent life.
Due to the demand for services the project has continued to raise monies. In the summer of 2010 we opened a further bungalow within the grounds of Lincolnshire House. This accommodation provides four further beds. There are two beds for respite care and two beds for residential care. The respite and residential each has it's own independent entrance so the services can be kept separate. Both facilities will have two single bedrooms with en-suites to include both a shower and a bath, there is a kitchen and dining room in each unit.
Lincolnshire House continues to raise monies through the WISH Appeal, our long term strategy is to provide further residential accommodation in the local community to satisfy the increasing demand for our services.
