Amber Lodge is a 13-bed residential home set across 2 beautiful Victorian buildings for people with a range of learning disabilities, we support clients with their daily living skills encouraging them to live as independently as possible, also assisting them to attend day services, health appointments and to keep in touch with families. Most clients attend day services locally, we have a bus route to enable us to get around Lowestoft to various places including the local town centre. We also have a minibus which enables us to take clients out on trips to Southwold or Cromer, trips to the theatre in Lowestoft and further afield like Norwich or London. We live across the road from the beach and promenade which is a beautiful place to visit in the warm summer months and in the colder winter months. We are also very lucky to have a zoo and bowling alley to go to. Some of our clients enjoy horse riding at Kirkley and Pakefield riding school which is just around the corner. At Amber Lodge, we love to celebrate Easter, Halloween and Christmas by decorating and having parties. Within Amber Lodge we also have a games/art room where our clients are always making something with art and craft and we also love a cinema night.
We are very lucky to be in the area we are in and having so many different things to do on a daily basis.
