Partnerships in Care (PiC) is pleased to announce the opening of a new purpose built, medium secure learning disability unit at St John’s House in Diss.

St John’s House, based near Diss on the Suffolk/Norfolk border, is at the centre of the PiC Learning Disability Services and provides a comprehensive range of services for people with learning or other developmental disabilities, who present with challenging behaviour. The new unit provides 32 beds in two spacious wards of 16 beds.

Fred Sinclair-Brown, Group Chief Executive, PiC said “The opening of the new unit at St John’s House expands and strengthens PiC’s recognised learning disability services.
