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?

Elliott House is a large, detached house in Fleet, Hampshire, five minutes’ walk from the town centre. The home provides residential support to nine men and women of varying ages with moderate to severe learning disabilities and associated complex needs. There is plenty of communal space including a large shared lounge, a dining room, kitchen and a conservatory that leads out to a safe, secure garden with a summer house. In the back garden a separate building has been adapted for sensory activities, arts and crafts, IT and computing, education and music, and also has a second lounge. A fully-equipped kitchen also allows residents to develop their food preparation and cooking skills. Elliot House is ideally situated, close to shops, pubs and local facilities, with Fleet railway station close by. It’s a lively home, with lots going on. Residents enjoy bowling, swimming, going to the cinema and the theatre, visiting social clubs and going out for meals. The home has its own transport for local travel and regular outings to the seaside and local farms and attractions.
