A day at Boston Avenue: Pursuing lifestyle choices
Today, L has already been to keep-fit, an exercise class and S is on her way to swimming. While G is going out for a meal and bowling this evening, an acoustic guitarist is coming to Boston Avenue to play for the service users between 8pm-9pm.
Tomorrow G and L will attend a craft group at college. Saturday service users can attend a music group at a local school and Sports activities at the local Fitness centre. Everyone living at Boston Avenue is also being assessed by the local college for classes starting in September.
Accessing mainstream community facilities as much as possible is key to opening up new life opportunities for people living with us.
"Everyone is supported to make their own choices and live their preferences in activities, food and much more. After all, the house is their home, and we are privileged to have such tenants." Nicky Winn, Manager of Boston Avenue
