“We owe a lot to Cygnet Raglan House for giving us our daughter back.”Family member
Our psychology and occupational therapy-led interventions effectively tackle the challenges of mental health and alongside our clinical interventions, we help women enhance their personal skills to rebuild their lives. Our care embraces a balanced approach to risk management and therapeutic optimism. Service users have access to a range of therapies and opportunities and care plans are individualised.
The local community is an essential step along the pathway to independence, for both leisure pursuits and for social training such as shopping and using public transport. External activities are tailored to individual needs and wishes and our membership in a local neighbourhood forum provides links to local businesses and voluntary organisations.
