Brook House
A spacious home from home
Brook House is registered for 3 young people, in a semi-rural area close to amenities and leisure and recreational activities, the home accommodates both sexes between the ages of 7 and 17 years old on admission. The home is in the market town of Leyland and is set down a leafy lane close to lovely walks and has the added benefit of a large field for lots of activities whatever time of year it is.
The home has a lovely feel and is always welcoming, with two cosy living spaces close the to heart of the home, the kitchen. The young people have recently had their input on the decoration of the main living area, creating mood boards, they loved the transformation from their initial designs.
