Salter’s Hill Charity Limited is a non-profit company limited by guarantee and a registered charity established in 1984 to provide homes for adults with learning disabilities from Gloucestershire, Herefordshire and Worcestershire.

The charity was formed to help residents lead an independent and fulfilling life. The first home, Pound Farm at Gorsley, which is leased from Beth Johnson Housing Association, was opened in 1988 and accommodates fourteen adults. Since then two further freehold properties have been acquired – Ryelands in Gorsley, home for six people and Keeper’s Cottage in Ledbury, home for a further eight people. In addition four people are supported in their own flats within the Ledbury community. We have also recently established a Domiciliary Care Agency in order to increase the range of support we can provide.

The charity’s central belief is that all people have the right to the same quality of life, but recognises that many can only achieve this with appropriate support. The charity’s statement of intent incorporates the need to:
- Provide homes and a fulfilled lifestyle for adults with learning disabilities
- Provide services that are tailored to meet individual needs following comprehensive ongoing assessment and sufficiently flexible to adapt, where possible, as people age
- Ensure residents/tenants are enabled to reach maximum individual independence and be supported by a competent and well trained team of staff.
- Provide opportunities for people and services to integrate and interact with the wider community.

The charity has accreditations from various professional bodies. Click here for more information.
