More about our approach to quality and safeguardingAbout this support setting
Thoughtfully designed for independent living
The sense of togetherness and shared experiences, shaped by the people we support are what makes Arundel House special. Weekly movie nights, bingo and gardening projects in the Summer months bring everyone together and our What’s On planning encourages everyone to be involved and shape the activities we offer and take part in. Dizzy & Rascal, our Guinea Pigs play an important role in providing calm sensory interactions and the people we support love helping with their care. Our team loves a baking opportunity, and we celebrate birthdays, seasonal events and milestones in meaningful ways.

Each person has an individual activity plan tailored around their likes and dislikes to ensure that they participate in meaningful activities. Everyone living at Arundel House is encouraged to be involved in the running of the home through weekly menu planning meetings and involvement in regular health and safety committee meetings. The support team is available 24 hours a day, including waking nights when required.
This home offers a balance of calm seaside living with accessible community activities. Arundel House is a minute walk from the beach where people can enjoy the relaxed paced and traditional seaside charm of this small coastal town. Just a short drive away is Clacton with a wide range of attractions and leisure activities including pier, amusements and seasonal activities making it ideal for a day out.
We’re not just participants. We’re planners, presenters, and leaders.
