Our Partnerships at Bourne View

Langside School & Diverse Abilities

We are delighted to announce our partnership with our neighbour, Langside School.

The school is run by a Dorset charity, Diverse Abilities, and specialises in educating children with multiple learning disabilities and complex medical needs.

So far, we have given the exterior a bright and vibrant paint job. We transformed the white exterior of Langside school to bold blue, green and yellow. You can see the brilliant impact our painting had on the image to the right. 

Langside School is also benefiting from new landscaping, railings, flood defences and a contribution towards an improved sensory room for pupils. We also sponsored Diverse Abilities Christmas Carol Concert which saw many of our residents from our sister homes attend. 

We look forward to keeping you updated on how this exciting new partnership evolves.

The West Hants Club

We have teamed up with The West Hants Club in a move that will also support talented youngsters seeking to play sport at higher levels. This partnership allows residents across multiple of our sister homes access to a premier Bournemouth sports club steeped in tennis history. To promote wider understanding of fitness and wellbeing in later life, Colten Care’s clinical experts will host presentations for club members on aspects of elderly care and health. The partnership was launched with a visit by residents from our sister home, Avon Cliff in Bournemouth. It coincided with the 50^th anniversary of West Hants staging the first ‘open era’ tennis tournament, widely seen as paving the way towards the global, professional sport tennis is now.
