About this location
Creek Road is a supported living service, offering support for four people who are autistic or have a learning disability. We are located in March, which is a small market town in the Isle of Ely area of Cambridgeshire. The service is situated just off the main street and set back from the road.
The property, which forms part of Priory Supported Living East England, falls within the Cambridgeshire local authority area and is managed by the housing provider Inclusion Housing.
Our specialist service provides person-centred care and support for our tenants, to promote independence, choice, equality and empowerment. At Creek Road we are committed to reflecting the guidance of The Reach Standards and the CQC's 'Right support, right care, right culture' guidance in everything we do. This means we work with our tenants to ensure they receive the right support to help them achieve their goals and reach their full potential.
