Conkers is a homely 7 bed residential setting for Adults who have Profound and Multiple Learning Disabilities.

Don’t let all this put you off though! We also spend time enjoying arts and crafts and music. You will work on a rota as part of a team, alongside support staff and seniors who have worked at the service for over 20 years! You will also have support from manager Karla and deputy Saima.

At Hollybank, we have a team of Speech and Language Therapists, Occupational Therapists and Physiotherapists, who provide individual support not only to the adults, but to the staff team to allow them to build their skills and knowledge as part of their role. Our adults enjoy attending Therapy sessions, such as Hydrotherapy, Rebound Therapy and Communication Cafes with their assistive technology.

  • A commitment to providing quality and person-centred care.
