At Station Road, we support 4 fun and outgoing individuals to live in their own flats in a shared building in Dollar, Clackmannanshire.

The people we support enjoy a wide range of different activities, like socialising, going to the movies, shopping, making Tiktoks, watching and playing football, walking, playing games and having barbecues in their shared garden. They’re looking for positive and patient people who can support them to try new activities and help them achieve their goals, which include going to college and finding a job.
