Glen Garth House in Cumbria is a 24/7 supported living service for people living with a mental health diagnosis, learning disability or autism.
Glen Garth House is in Barrow-in-Furness, a coastal and historic part of Cumbria. Located close to the centre of Barrow, there is easy access to shops, local amenities and public transport. The property’s traditional Edwardian architecture has been conserved whilst renovating the property which now consists of 17 bedrooms, each with an ensuite bathroom and ample communal spaces.
As with all of our services, the people we support benefit from ‘The Northern Healthcare model of supported living’, with 24/7 support onsite and clinical input from our multi-disciplinary team.
The team provide 24/7 support for people with a variety of mental health conditions. The people we support come to us from a number of different pathways; they may need greater ‘step down’ support following a period in an acute hospital or forensic service. Our experienced multi-disciplinary team help individuals to achieve their next steps, from simple tasks such as cooking and budgeting to longer-term goals such as gaining employment.

Homely is the keyword visitors use to describe Glen Garth. There are a number of areas in which the people we support can socialise, we have two shared kitchens, a snug lounge area and an activities area. In the summer we often make use of the outdoor space and our beautiful private garden is often used for BBQs and other activities.
People's views and decisions about care were incorporated in their care plans. This helped staff to support people in a way that allowed people to have control over their lives. People told us, "I would recommend this service to other people. Staff help me with [name of activity] and help to keep me focused." (CQC Report 2021)
Our supported living services are full of activities with a busy calendar of group cooking classes, exercise, health and nutrition workshops, 1-2-1 time and occupational therapy to suit everyone’s needs and help the people we support reach their recovery goals.…
