Food; Park Lodge is self catering. This means you will need to buy and cook your own food.
Kitchen Equipment; The kitchens at the project do have kitchen equipment for you to use although you may wish to have your own pots and pans. You should have a plate, bowl, cup, knife, fork and spoon already in your room. We do not allow deep fat frying.
Washing machines; there are two washing machines and dryers for you to use. These are free but you have to provide your own washing powder.
Rent; rent is £13.00 per week and is added onto your account on a Monday.
Key & fob; you will be given a key to your room and a fob. The fob will let you in and out of the building (remember to sign yourself in and out of the building – by the front door). Always lock your door when you leave you room. If you lose you key or fob, you will be charged £12.50 for each of these. Please tell staff if you lose any of these.
TV & music equipment; if you have a television or stereo, you can bring these to the project.
Your room; we expect you to keep your room clean and tidy; it is your responsibility! If you allow any other residents into your room and something was to happen, you would be held responsible.

Key worker & link sessions;
