A Caring Community
Hurdy Gurdy House offers a safe and nurturing environment for adults with autism and other diagnoses.
Our dedicated team provides personalized care, fostering community, independence, and a sense of belonging for all residents.

Inclusive Care Beyond the Autism Spectrum
Hurdy Gurdy House is primarily dedicated to individuals on the Autism Spectrum, but we also welcome residents with other diagnoses.
Up to 25% of our residents may come from this group, provided their integration aligns with our philosophy and benefits the existing residents.
This ensures that all residents contribute to a positive and supportive atmosphere.
Ensuring a Good Fit
Our admissions process ensures that all new residents can thrive in our community.
Each prospective resident undergoes a three-month trial period, during which their adjustment is carefully observed.
This trial period may be extended as needed. Admissions decisions are made by a dedicated committee of trained professionals,
who ensure that new residents fit well within the home’s community and align with its core values.
A Diverse Group of Individuals
At Hurdy Gurdy House, we currently support nine residents, aged between 20 and 50 years.
Our residents have a variety of needs, including some who are non-verbal and one who is deaf.
Each individual receives care tailored to their specific circumstances, fostering a supportive and inclusive environment.
