Education at CCL’s The Grafton Centre, offers a holistic student-centred curriculum focusing on independence, functional skills and more. We are dedicated to making sure all our learners reach their potential.
Care
Our 13 residential homes are nestled in communities in and around Shrewsbury. Residents receive the highest standards of care and support regardless of whether they are with us on a short break or a 52-week placement.
Opportunities
Our Opportunities Programme, offers a range of fun activities out in the community or at our main site, Longbow House in Shrewsbury. Whatever your dreams, aspirations or interests, we will support you to achieve them!
About Us
Condover College was founded in 2004 by Steve McGill, a father who insisted on only the very best care for his son, Matthew.
Steve had struggled to find a college that catered for Matthew’s disabilities. He knew there was only one thing for it: he’d have to start a college himself.
Today, we’re continuing Steve’s legacy of providing first-rate care and opportunities for people with additional needs.
