Six fully-accessible one bedroom bungalows at Badgers Court have an open plan lounge and dining room, and a separate kitchen. The main bedroom is spacious and comes with built-in cupboards.

Each bungalow has its own garden, with access to a shared patio and a built-in BBQ for people to use together – we often hold summer parties here.

Valued in your community

At Badgers Court, we place people’s personal interests, needs and aspirations at the heart of absolutely everything we do. We are located close to Stourbridge, which has the main train line to Birmingham, while local buses go to the Merry Hill Shopping Centre and other larger town centres. When the weather’s good, people spend time in the garden, or on longer walks with staff. We take regular trips to the Unicorn Centre – a local specialist service for disabled adults, involving crafts, art, music and drama – as well as canal barge trips and cinema outings. We often eat out as a group and enjoy regular visits to the seaside, local tourist attractions and railway museums. We have year-round access to local leisure facilities such as swimming at Crystal Leisure Centre, numerous local libraries, and the Merry Hill Shopping Centre with shops, banks, a post office and Odeon Cinema. Badgers Court receives home visits from a GP, optician, dentist and chiropodist. The nearby Ridge Hill Centre provides easy access to an oncologist, psychiatrist, physiotherapist, epilepsy nurse, behaviour nurse, speech and language therapist, weight clinic and many more services.
