Gow Lodge
More than accommodation. A place to belong.
Gow Lodge is a purpose-built supported living home in Sussex — seven residents in seven en-suite rooms, one shared life, and a community around them.
Seven en-suite rooms
Every resident has their own en-suite room and personal space.
Shared community spaces
Kitchen, lounge and dining areas built for gathering.
A working garden
Beds, borders and a place to grow together.
A flexible community space
Used by SASBAH on weekdays, with evenings and weekends offering opportunities for JPK activities.
Skilled support
A trained team on hand every day — with independence, not dependence, as the goal.
Little jobs, real purpose
Residents hold volunteering roles that bring structure, pride and friendships.
A working home
Independence looks like doing your own thing.
Cooking a meal. Tending a bed of vegetables. Wiping down the table after supper. Popping to the shops. It sounds ordinary — because it is. And that's the point.
Residents at Gow Lodge choose how to spend their days, with support close at hand when they need it. Small ordinary rituals build into something extraordinary: a life you own.
Little jobs, big pride
Volunteering in the community.
Every resident has a role — sometimes it's called a "little job", but nothing about it feels little. It's turning up. It's being relied upon. It's belonging somewhere.
