About this service
Imola is a property in Cressing, near Braintree, situated down a quiet road. The main house accommodates 6 people and there are also two very large self-contained apartments, which have access to the main building. The property has extensive outside space, the grounds extending over approximately two acres. There are ample parking spaces for staff and visitors at the front of the property and the gardens to the rear are laid to lawn, with fruit trees, bushes and shrubs. The home has the advantage of being located in a rural setting along with excellent community facilities nearby in Cressing, Braintree and Silver End. Local facilities include a small supermarket, post office, library, garage and pubs, but within a few miles there are large shopping centres, a cinema, a bowling alley, country walks, sporting facilities, churches, beaches and marina, hairdressers, colleges and parks. There are excellent bus links to the local towns of Braintree and Witham.

“I don’t know quite how to say THANK YOU but…. THANK YOU. You and your team do a great job and it is noticeable when we see our son. I can’t tell you how you have transformed our lives. And how grateful we are. Please pass on my thanks to Gary for our chat after the meeting I had with you this morning. It is really helpful for me to talk to the people ‘on the ground’ about how they feel about him and how they react to [his] individual behaviours and what he gets up to…It was great hearing first hand about his holiday and his experiences at Greenacre and his gardening project at Mirabeau.”
“My son continues to make good progress. Staff continue to provide an excellent service.”
“The support workers whom I have spoken to show a keen insight into the needs of their residents and helped me immensely with my task. The management are always welcoming and helpful and also have a deep insight into the behaviours of their service users.”
