The Phoenix Centre

The Phoenix Centre is run by Blackpool Borough Council. The location provides a domiciliary service for people who live in the local community. This includes supporting people with personal care needs and assisting people to be as independent as they can be. Within the building there is a residential mental health service for people with a primary diagnosis of enduring mental illness who are experiencing a mental health crisis. The service offers short stays from one night to up to two weeks to enable a period of recovery. In addition the Phoenix centre provides a supported living scheme and extra supported living scheme in houses within the community. These are houses in the Blackpool area that are staffed 24 hours a day and provide accommodation. The aim of the services is to provide rehabilitation for people and move on to accommodation of their choice.
