Recognising Potential, Encouraging Independence, Achieving Self-Worth
|
Crossways Community is a Christian charity caring for younger adults (18-65 years) with mental health difficulties based in the leafy suburban St John’s area of Tunbridge Wells. The care and support in each home is tailored to meet specific needs; residents in the care home (Number 8) have more acute mental health difficulties, those in the Culverdale, our supported accommodation, are more independent and in the six self-contained flats, people have occasional support. In addition we are continuing to develop a Mental Health Awareness programme for schools, businesses, churches & community groups. |
