@thepark, Bowden Derra Park Limited was founded in 1982 by David Cash and his late wife, Judy. David is a director who is actively involved in the day-to-day operations of the service.

They had a vision to provide a facility for people with a learning disability that was a ‘home for life’. Such was their enthusiasm that over the years the provision has gone from strength to strength and provides accommodation for individuals with many different needs.

Development of @thepark has seen a variety of new and exciting challenges presented. The diversity of what @thepark offers complements its uniqueness and is ‘far from ordinary’.

Currently, @thepark offers commissioned services to individuals with a wide range of needs, including learning disabilities, physical disabilities, acquired brain injuries, dementia, sensory impairments, mental health and nursing care.

Along with excellent residential and nursing care, @thepark can provide individualised person-cantered care and support. There is an opportunity to meet every need.

Our inclusive choir here @ThePark brings music, keyword signing, and joy to every performance — from community events to schools and care homes. By combining singing with signing, we celebrate diversity, accessibility, and the power of music to connect people of all ages and abilities.
