What it's like to live here

People at Westview have devised a cooking and cleaning schedule and these are followed every day. All individuals do their own washing with little staff support. As well as attend college or work placements. Individuals are fully involved in the up keep of the garden and this year grew their own vegetables.

All attend the RMVC where they socialise with friends and do bingo, art and craft, dance and movement, karaoke and line dancing. In the evenings pub trips, discos and special Olympics are arranged.
