To help you personalise your space and feel comfortable, you are welcome to bring in your own personal items. For example, photos, ornaments and blankets are great items to make you feel at home. Larger items are welcome if they do not present a safety issue. If you have any specific queries about personal belongings, we’re happy to discuss them with you prior to admission.
