About Us
Fiennes House is an accessible purpose-built residential home in Wellington, Somerset. We specialise in supporting people who have learning disabilities or autism, who may also have sight loss, to live ambitious lives and achieve things they never thought possible.
When we asked Danny (someone we support) what he likes, he said:
I’m Danny, I’m 38. I have cerebral palsy and use a wheelchair, I have limited movement with my arms. I communicate using a liberator which is like a computer, I type what I want to say and it will then speak what I have written. I like being independent but I do need help and encouragement to achieve this. I can with your support make myself a cup of tea, smoothie and cook my own meal. I like going to the pub, clubbing. I am looking for someone upbeat, who is patient, a good listener with a good sense of humour.
