Did you know?...<br />
We won the CareFocus award for meals volunteers Our home help service<br />
We have a sheltered and supported housing focus group of tenants who worked with us to develop<br />
services standards for all sheltered and supported housing residents.<br />
We have 532 sheltered and supported housing properties in <strong>West</strong> <strong>Somerset</strong>, Sedgemoor and the<br />
Taunton Deane area. We also deliver services to non-<strong>Magna</strong> residents.<br />
Our team of sheltered and supported housing staff help keep over a thousand people independent in<br />
their own homes each year. This reduces the need for other more expensive and institutional services.<br />
Ingrams Meadow, Extra Care Scheme, has a 5 star kitchen. We provide a mid-day meal to our residents<br />
at Ingrams, Silvermead Extra Care Schemes and to Meals on Wheels 365 days of the year.<br />
Ingrams Meadow has recently opened a small shop for residents to use when they are unable to get<br />
out to the shops.<br />
Silvermead have a vegetable garden and produce is sold at a very low price to residents so seeds can<br />
be bought for the following year.<br />
Ingrams Meadow has a lovely library most of the books have been donated for the residents to enjoy.<br />
The County Library delivers books every three months in large print and we have our own selection of<br />
talking books for residents to use as they wish.<br />
