What we offer

Portland Street is two joined houses with single rooms, five of which are en suite, as well as a flat for two individuals who are able to live more independently. There are a further two ground floor rooms for individuals with some mobility issues.

Portland Street is close to the railway and bus stations and town centre, so is ideally situated for promoting independence with individuals. Many people enjoy local walks and bus trips across the area. The local supermarket is across the road from the home.

The home is close to the local swimming pool and leisure centres where people can be supported to use the facilities on offer, including gyms, saunas, and access to sports parks for more specific training. There is a vehicle to transport individuals to appointments, home visits, leisure activities as well as voluntary work placements when public transport is not appropriate or available.

Portland Street is close to the north Norfolk coast (12 miles from Hunstanton). Individuals can take full advantage of local seaside resorts, coastal villages and nature reserves.

Lifestyle

This home offers a quiet and calm environment. People living at this home often interact with other neighbouring Achieve together homes.

Portland Street offers a wide range of activities designed to promote the increased independence of the individual and to build on various skills. People are supported to participate in pampering sessions, art classes, swimming, trips to the gym, and day trips out to local attractions and day centres.

Portland Street also has the use of a beach hut, situated in Old Hunstanton, and so most weekends involve a trip to the coast for those who wish to take part.

The team will also support people to develop their independence skills such as meal preparation, grocery shopping, self-care and budgeting.
