We provide housing-related support and domiciliary care to help people live independently within a safe and relaxed environment.

What we offer

Thornton Gate is a purpose-built, supported-housing complex that opened in 2006 beside the Cleveleys Beach promenade. The service has eight self-contained flats, two of which are wheelchair accessible, each with their own bathroom and kitchen.

We also have a communal lounge and a shared kitchen where residents are able to cook and eat with others. There’s lift access throughout the service plus a laundry room, and a lovely garden. The service is a 10-minute walk from local shops, banks and a post office, and Blackpool is a short tram-ride away.

Lifestyle

Thornton Gate is a comfortable and welcoming home from home with a great atmosphere, where residents and team members become like family. We support each person to create their own person-centred plan which describes what’s important to them and how they want their life to be, and the help they need to make this happen.

We empower the people we support to do daily tasks as independently as possible, encouraging, prompting and supporting people in the right way for them.
A resident says, “The staff are there when I need them. They’re brilliant.”

Choice, dignity and parity are all-important at Thornton Gate. Residents give their feedback and are listened, and they play a part in shaping the service, including recruiting new team members, choosing furniture and decoration and where to go on holiday.
