Additional Information: The room, associated activities and support are available to any person in the community that feels they will benefit. The main ethos is being a safe, warm welcoming and inclusive space. If a person attending would usually require 1-2-1 care for personal needs such as eating or going to the toilet, then that care would need to be available throughout a session. If a person attending usually requires 24 hour care on a 1-2-1 basis, then that would need to remain in place for any session taken.
