The Upham Road Centre supports people with learning disabilities providing day care and activities for 135 service users. Incorporated into the centre are two units for people with special needs currently supporting:
- 13 people in QUEST (for people with challenging behaviour)
- 13 people in Steps (for people with severe physical needs)
Although Upham Road Centre is a traditional model, it strives to provide a wide range of opportunities to its service users making the best use of community facilities and other specialist that operate in Swindon.
There is currently a huge agenda for change within learning disabilities and day services is a major area that needs to modernise. Upham Road Centre management and staff are keen to contribute to the planning for the future and involve service users and their carers in saying what they want and need.
