Choice Care is one of the UK’s leading residential care providers for people with learning disabilities, autism and mental health conditions.

We are also proud to be **one of the Top 100 Apprenticeship Employers** for the second year in a row

Our homes are more than just a place to live, they’re like a second family for everyone we support. Each home is a close knit community, with its own unique personality, and all the ups and downs of typical family life, built on trust and the promise of unconditional care. Our colleagues build close bonds with the people they care for, helping to create enduring, positive relationships that build confidence and self-esteem.

In every Choice Care home there’s a strong emphasis on living life to the full and having fun, with purposeful daily activities based on individual preferences and capabilities. Alongside this there are regular social events, projects, outings and holiday breaks which everyone can get involved in and express themselves through.

**Where will you work?**

Fifteen minutes’ walk from Lymington town centre, in the beautiful New Forest, Holly Lodge supports up to eleven men and women of mixed ages, with moderate to severe learning difficulties and autism. Holly Lodge is a large home with plenty of communal areas for leisure and socialising, including a shared lounge and an activities room. All the bedrooms are en-suite and are currently undergoing some exciting refurbishments. There is also huge garden; including a smaller, secret garden tucked away within it. Those we support at Holly Lodge are a lively and active group. They get involved in a broad range of tailored, individual activities to support ongoing personal development, as well as group pastimes including self-organised arts and crafts, and frequent trips around the New Forest and the nearby beaches. Holly Lodge is staffed on a 24-hour basis and also offers in-house positive behaviour support to help with emotional and general wellbeing.
