Specialising In Supporting Young Adults


Supporting Young Adults Aged (18-35)

Specialist Care for a New Generation

At Northwood, we understand that younger adults have unique needs, aspirations, and challenges—especially when living with long-term health conditions, neurological disorders, or recovering from injury. That's why we've developed a dedicated approach to support individuals aged 18 to 35, blending clinical excellence with meaningful lifestyle support.

We're not just a care home—we're a place where young people can rebuild independence, rediscover purpose, and feel part of a vibrant, respectful community.

Who We Support:

Our younger residents maybe living with:

  • Acquired Brain Injury (ABI)
  • Neurological conditions (e.g. MS, epilepsy, cerebral palsy)
  • Complex physical disabilities
  • Mental health challenges
  • Progressive or genetic disorders
  • Long-term rehabilitation needs

Whether short-term recovery or long-term support, we tailor every care plan to the individual's goals, preferences, and potential.

A Different Kind of Care

We know that younger adults want more than just safety—they want autonomy, stimulation, and connection.

Our care model includes:

  • Personalised Rehabilitation Plans: Developed with input from physiotherapists, occupational therapists, and mental health professionals.
  • Social and Emotional Support: Including counselling access, peer interaction, and structured routines to promote wellbeing.
  • Technology-Friendly Environment: Wi-Fi access, digital devices, and support for online learning, entertainment, and communication.
  • Age-Appropriate Activities: From music and gaming to creative workshops, fitness sessions, and community outings.
  • Vocational and Educational Pathways: We support residents in exploring remote work, volunteering, or further education where possible.
