Grafton Street

Type of property

At Grafton Street, people are supported to live independently, enjoying their own space while also being part of a close-knit, welcoming community.

Set over two floors, each apartment consists of an open plan kitchen and living area, bedroom and en-suite bathroom. The shared garden is accessible and has a patio for people to use when the weather is good. The properties also come with assistive technology and an intercom to talk to team members.

Living at this service

Life at Grafton Street is ideal for people with learning disabilities, physical disabilities, or on the autistic spectrum. When you choose supported living, you’re choosing to live independently, safe and secure behind your own front door. There’s peace of mind in knowing the Lifeways team is on-hand, providing tailored support that helps people to lead more fulfilling lives, surrounded by like-minded people.

We are ready to welcome new people of any age and gender who would benefit from the right support in a modern and welcoming environment. Everyone will be supported to live as independently as possible and to choose how they spend their time. We can support people to take part in the hobbies and activities they enjoy, access education or employment and make the most of what the local community has to offer.

Valued in your community

There is nothing more valuable than being an active part of the local community. At Grafton Street we’re fortunate to be located close to Stockport Town Centre. The local area has a lot to offer including a post office, cafés, restaurants and high-street banks. The train station is near to the service and has regular services into Manchester and further afield.

Stockport offers diverse social activities for people with learning disabilities. These include activity hubs like Impact Social Hub and the Newbridge Centre, supported groups through Disability Stockport's Connect, and youth-focused groups via AutiSK. Activities cover everything from sports and arts to pub nights and day trips, helping people build skills, confidence, and social connections in a supportive environment.
