Supported Living
Windhill is a three story block of flats in Bishop's Stortford owned by the
Housing Association, Clarion. It accommodates up to 12 adults of varying
ages who have learning disabilities, epilepsy and other complex needs. There
are 6 single flats and 3 double flats. This is permanent accommodation for
those who live there.
The focus for the adults using the service is to live a quality life of their choosing, to be active in
the community and access the amenities in their local community for activities and events. This
may include pony and trap riding, swimming, shopping, working at the farm, coffee mornings
with friends and some voluntary work roles. They may also choose to visit the Much Hadham
site for the enterprise projects on offer.
St Elizabeth9s provides Windhill with a team of permanent staff who are trained and skilled to
manage epilepsy and learning disabilities. They have all built strong relationships with everyone
who lives there. Adults living at Windhill are supported to access all community resources to
meet all of their health care needs.
Staff employed at Windhill by St Elizabeth9s receive training in epilepsy management and
bespoke training, on-going assessment and updates from both community and our St
Elizabeth9s Epilepsy Specialist Nurse.
Each individual who lives there holds a tenancy or licensing agreement. With consent and the
assessed levels of support required, tenants are supported to pay their bills and manage their
money.
Everyone living at Windhill meet monthly to discuss matters of importance to them and the staff
support with the actions and requests.
