Overview

Leyburn Place is situated in the south of Gateshead in Birtley. Birtley high street is a short distance away. It has amenities including shops, a library and a large supermarket, and good bus transport links to Gateshead, Chester-le-Street and Durham.   

Leyburn Place consists of 32 two-bed flats, each containing Tunstall emergency care units with pull cords and pendants. These are technology solutions that can help you to manage many risks around the home, and alert caregivers in an emergency. The scheme has a Mobile Sheltered Scheme Officer who shares their time with other schemes but is contactable between 8.30am and 4.30pm Monday to Friday, providing support to residents. 

The communal lounge on site has an activity schedule where residents come together to relax and socialise.
