A
secluded and beautiful rural location which means:
you will be living in a safe place away from pressures
of daily living;
you will be living in a 'dry' and drug-free house;
you will have 'thinking' time and opportunities to 'reconnect'
with family if this is your aim.
The environment provides an opportunity to become more
aware of the land and the seasons and to experience a real sense of peace.
Pilsdon provides a rhythm to life with
a pattern of work where you can contribute your skills
and learn new ones,
an opportunity to join in daily worship or simply be aware
that it is happening,
times to relax and have fun using or acquiring artistic
talent,
opportunities to take part in sport, join in card and
board games, or sit chatting.
Living at Pilsdon brings with it:
a sense of belonging; acceptance; of being needed
and the rebuilding of self-confidence;
companionship and social interaction with a diverse
group of people;
contact with and the opportunity to work with farm
animals;
a weekly trip to town and occasional 'days out';
links to medical/support services - GPs, Community
Mental Health Teams, Dentists, Drug and Alcohol Advice Centres,
links to other communities
individual freedom to come and go to a town;
single rooms for all - although the number of single
rooms available is increasing at present;
treatments in terms of 'in-house' counselling or individual
therapy/healing;
individual personal care or one-to-one supervision;
special diets although alternatives are always available;
the
option of doing nothing.
