I have been searching for a suitable residential placement for my daughter who is 35 yrs old.  I would like a community type environment that will support Joanna's needs, particularly communication.  She has no speech but is quite bright and previously used a Dynavox.  I'd appreciate any feedback.  We currently live in Chester where my daughter is is supported living.

    Hi @Dryden41, welcome to the community!

    You can use the link above provided by Steve to search for residential services around the country: this may be a good place to start and to get an idea of what's available.

    Thanks Pippa, the facilities in Cheshire are not suitable as they are not in a position to help Jo to increase her communication.  The only facility that suits all of her needs is Upper Springland in Scone, Perthshire, Scotland.  It's run bt Capability Scotland but I wanted to ensure I hadn't missed a similar facility in England.
