To create a changing area in Stainforth Youth
and SMILE building for people who have personal care needs living
in Stainforth and surrounding areas:-
Stainforth and surrounding areas do not have facilities to provide
specialist care needs. A changing area with equipment would support
people with complex needs in the East area to access facilities in
their local community.
Estimated cost of £40k to install a fire escape in order to
be compliant with fire and safety regulations at Eden Lodge in
order for Doncaster people who have a Learning Disability and/or
physical disabilities to attend 24/7 short stay service at the
provision:-
Eden Lodge
A lift has been agreed to be installed supporting the 24/7 short
stay service to meet the needs of people who have learning/physical
disabilities. Fire regulations are insisting a fire escape is
installed to ensure the delivery of safe services. Presently there
are 144 Doncaster people accessing the 24/7 short stay services.
People’s support needs are increasing, requiring facilities
for people with a learning/physical disability to stay so their
families can have a break. There are limited options in Doncaster,
resulting in people having to seek out services out of the area,
which are often more expensive.
