Established in 1958, Winston House offers accommodation for 27 men and women aged 18 to 65, with a past/present mental illness.

The house runs on therapeutic community principles. Every service user plays an important part in the decision making processes within the house and each individual has a personal responsibility to the community as a whole.

All service users are supported and encouraged to develop their daily living skills by participation in collective domestic activities which include cooking, cleaning and shopping as well as being responsible for their personal hygiene and keeping their own rooms clean and tidy.

Winston House is run by 2 Care, a national organisation that specialises in residential care for people with mental health needs.

There are two communal lounges one for smokers and one for non-smokers.There is a separate dining room and a large kitchen. The gardens are accessible to service users.
