Residential, Short Breaks (respite) and Day Services

Hannahwood focuses on the transition from adolescence to adulthood, both in terms of learning and development, and care. Our space has the vibrancy and leniency of a university campus with the meticulous care and standards of Dame Hannahs. Aimed at helping people to live more independently and prepare them for community life. Hannahwood still supplies education, but the timetables are not rigid but tailored to meet the needs of the individual. The students continue to work with the same team of Dame Hannahs therapists; so, although there’s a big change in how education and care are delivered, there is continuity.

Hannahwood provides residential placements and short break opportunities for adults aged 19 plus with a variety of complex
and profound needs.
