History
RNIB Community Living Service used to be a section of RNIB Redhill College, established in September 1957. The college closed in August 2007 but the residential care and facilitation programme remained, and it has developed into the current service.
Residential care
Our residential care facilities are arranged in units of six people and we can accommodate 24 residential care placements.
Supported living
We have 20 supported living flats, or shared house placements, on the site and around the town.
Additional facilities
We have a "Hub" which has a wide range of facilities and specialist equipment. This includes a fully adapted Fitness Centre and exercise pool and a 12 foot TV with audio, music and drama provision in a custom built centre. We also have a well equipped resource room.
