Acorn Village was established in 1975 to provide a secure future for people who have learning disabilities.
Acorn Village is based at Mistley Hall, a small Georgian mansion house set in fourteen acres of land, which is our main administration centre. Our residents' accommodation is mainly situated in the grounds and ranges from single flats to high dependency units, and we also support and maintain six properties in the nearby town of Manningtree. Because the village is comprised of different sizes and styles of accommodation, we are able to cater closely for each person's requirements whilst creating a warm, homely atmosphere modelled on everyday family life and support is given to enable our residents to take responsibility for their own daily needs.
Our residents can enjoy the comfort and privacy of their own space and communal areas where they meet for work, activities and social interaction. Acorn fosters close two-way links with the local community and the Organisation regularly gives talks to schools and groups to promote understanding among local people.
If you are interested in our accommodation for your relative or supporting our fundraising through our events or by using our Charity Shops, Cafés or Conference Centre, then all the details can be found here on our website. Thank you.
