Who are we?

Choice Care is one of the UK's leading residential care providers for people with learning disabilities, autism and mental health conditions. With over 30 years' experience, we're at the forefront of national best practice, with among the highest CQC ratings of any comparable organisation.

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?

Twynham provides support for seven residents with mild learning disabilities, mental health conditions and associated complex needs. All the people we support are encouraged to attend local colleges and work placements. We support the use of public transport as much as possible, but the home also has its own vehicle for leisure, recreational and educational activities in the community. Twynham is situated less than one mile from New Milton town centre, and around ten miles from both Christchurch and Bournemouth.
