FI Homes provide residential living to adults with learning difficulties and special needs
Welcome to FI Homes
FI Homes provide residential living to adults with learning difficulties and special needs.
INTRODUCTION
The four FI houses provide a home to 52 adults with learning difficulties. The homes were acquired and opened during the years 1989 to 1998 and are located along the lovely Vale of Elham in East Kent. Although each Home is independent they share the same core values and beliefs.
Care Homes
The homes provide a friendly, caring and homely environment for their residents.
The properties are located in the village of Lyminge, at the Elham Valley vineyard and two at Barham. Each of the homes operates on a not-for-profit basis with any surplus from operations ploughed back to improving the homes.
- The homes provide 24 hour care.
- Each is located in a quiet rural setting but in or close to a village and a bus stop.
- The homes use a person centred approach to care provision.
- All residents have en-suite bathrooms facilities to their rooms.
- Residents can choose to furnish and decorate their room to their own choice.
- The residents have access to a wide range of daytime educational and work based activities at the Fifth Trust Day Centres.
VACANCY
The homes have virtually no turnover of residents but a new vacancy has been created at Broadstreet House
Day Services
Residents are fortunate to have the support of a charity, the Fifth Trust, which provides help to the homes but principally provides two Day Centres with an extremely wide choice of activities. The Centres are open to residents from our homes and to others living in the locality.
In addition to the range of classes and work based opportunities including woodwork, pottery, computers, and art and craft, the Centre at the Elham Valley Vineyard has a traditional Tea Shop open to the public 7 days per week. It also has a Plant and Garden Centre – both staffed by residents and students during the week.
