183 Ashby Road - Voyage Care

Voyage Care logo

183 Ashby Road is beautiful Victorian Residential Care Home, which has just gone through a major refurbishment.  As a transition service, we successfully support people who are about to embark on their journey from education or their family home into their next stage of independence.

We are part of Voyage Care who are a market leader in our field. Our service is ideal for people who are about to move on from school or college and are looking for a placement to support them to become more independent.

At 183 we specialise in working with young people over a period of two to three years to prepare them for more independent living in the future. It is rare for us to have voids in our service as the demand is high for our care and support, but due to people being successfully moved onto supported living, there are two beautiful rooms ready and waiting.

Ashby Road

Ashby Road is a residential care home for young people aged 18 to 30 with learning disabilities, mild challenging behaviour or autism. Our home is ideal for those who want to become more independent and move forwards to supported living in the future.

Our home is located close to Burton-on-Trent’s town centre, which is filled with plenty of shops, restaurants, pubs and a cinema. We are also very close to attractions like Twycross Zoo.

There is a good bus service into other towns such as Lichfield and Derby. The town also has a college, which runs courses specifically for people with learning disabilities.

We currently have three residents with learning disabilities, autism and some mild challenging behaviour. They are very independent and enjoy going to college and working at their volunteer jobs. Our team aim to transition people to supported living by teaching daily living skills.

Rachel Tundervary - Service Manager

“I am proud to lead a team who are so passionate and dedicated to providing great quality care and support.

At 183 Ashby Road we keep the people we support at the centre of their own care, giving them clear outcome based targets set with them in order for them to progress onto the next stage of their lives.”

Our vacancies

We currently have two vacancies at our home. They are situated on our first and second floors, close to the bathrooms. 

Ashby Road is an end terraced property split across three floors and has five bedrooms. We also have a lounge, dining room, refurbished kitchen and a large back garden, which has a paved patio area. 

The service has undergone a full refurbishment this summer and is a very modern, homely place to life. Please note that our home is not suitable for those with mobility difficulties.

We're keeping you safe

Our main priority at Voyage Care is to help you lead the life you want, in a secure and safe way. Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, our team is constantly updating our approach based on the latest Government policies and procedures, with steps in place to reduce the risk of transmission.

  • Enabling a convenient virtual assessment process. This includes the use of online meetings, tours and chats with the team.
  • Using technology to keep you in touch with your loved ones when socially distanced visits are not possible. This includes virtual picnics, movie nights and quizzes.
  • Focusing on your mental well-being throughout this difficult time though home-based activities – some of our services have even created their own pop-up pubs!
