Located in the friendly village of Clayton in the suburbs of Bradford, Longfield House is a specialist residential service providing outcome focused care for adults with learning disabilities and associated complex needs who may have behaviours that challenge.

Person-centred planning is at the heart of everything we do and we are able to meet the changing needs of our residents as they progress through their care pathway, while ensuring their safety is maintained and their independence supported.

Longfield House consists of 5 different living units, a 5 bed unit and 4 single occupancy flats. The 5 bed unit has communal living spaces with lounge, dining room and kitchen and each resident has their own en-suite facilities. There are then 4 individual flats, one in the main house and 3 in the coach house. These provide the opportunity for individuals to be more independent and live in their space. The flats are also able to be used to support those who require extra support who find it difficult to share space with others. Externally there is a courtyard and a garden with plenty of space for individuals to have BBQ’s, garden parties or even just sit and enjoy the outside space.

“Thank you to everyone at Longfield House for all their hard work, we appreciate that you keep us up to date by sending regular photos of our loved one doing activities.”

The service is located on the outskirts of Bradford and has fantastic public transport links into Bradford and Halifax. In addition to the community facilities in the local towns and cities, there is also an abundance of community facilities nearby in the village. The residents are encouraged to be involved in the local community as much or as little as they wish to be and there is no shortage of places to visit within walking distance too including parks, farms, pubs and cafés.

In conjunction with the other local Cygnet residential services, we have some great projects that residents can attend regularly including bakery, textiles, horticultural and education. These projects introduce vocational and learning activities designed to give residents the opportunity to learn valuable skills and develop confidence.
