Parvale House

Parvale House provides tailored and person-centered support for people with PWS – everyone is involved in decisions about their care, and actively involved in managing their health from learning how to plan and cook healthy food to fitness and exercise.

People are actively encouraged into the kitchen to prepare food for themselves, and for others, as well as supporting with finding the right ingredients for their meals. The home has a very relaxed atmosphere; people enjoy the freedom of being able to come and go as they wish.

Some people still get together to play games, have art sessions, watch their soaps and hang out in the communal areas just chatting over a drink. People are encouraged to get out into the community, some have jobs or volunteer roles, attend church or religious services, go to fitness classes and social clubs.

Everyone takes advantage of local cinemas, pools, escape rooms and other social activities that are close by – and often venture further out for day trips and holidays.

People living here are involved in decisions about their home and the care they receive, whether that’s getting stuck in with painting and decorating, organising games nights or contributing to their support plan with their own goals.
