Location: Cuerden Hall, Shady Lane, Bamber Bridge, Preston PR5 6AZ.
Cuerden hall is within walking distance from 2 train stations and local busses will also take you close to site.
Cuerden Hall is a Sue Ryder specialist neurological care centre based in Lancashire, caring for people aged 18 and over who have life-changing conditions affecting the brain and nervous system. We are here for people with degenerative conditions such as motor neurone disease, multiple sclerosis and Huntington's - as well as those with acquired conditions resulting from a brain or spinal injury or stroke. We offer a huge range of support, from long-term residential care centre where each room is specially adapted to make moving and handling easier, to day services to help people remain independent at home.
At Sue Ryder not only do we treat more conditions than any other UK charity in our hospices, neurological care centres and out in the community; we also campaign to improve the lives of people living with them. We see the person, not the condition, taking time to understand the small things that help that person live the fullest life they can. Our shops, fundraising and volunteers support us to be there for people at the most difficult time of their lives.
