Amitola Communities

Amitola Communities offer quality care and support services to adults with enduring and complex mental health issues and (or) learning disabilities.

Our York based residential care homes & recovery services provide a therapeutic community setting, encouraging the development, well-being, and independence of our residents. We strive to minimise the impact mental illness can have on an individual, thereby affording them the best quality of life achievable.

A great session out playing badminton today. Lots of movement, laughter, and encouragement, with everyone getting involved at their own pace. Moments like these remind us how powerful shared activity and connection can be in recovery.

Flipping into Pancake Day mode 🥞

There’s something special about sharing food around the table. Moments like these remind us that community-led mental health support isn’t always about big interventions… sometimes it’s just pancakes and being together 💛

Amitola joined forces with The Hut York - Members Led Charity to host a Valentine’s Disco, bringing together our clients and members of the wider community for an evening full of music, laughter, and connection.

It was wonderful to see so many people dancing, smiling, and simply enjoying being together. Events like this remind us that community matters and that celebration, inclusion, and belonging should be part of everyone’s story.

A huge thank you to The Hut York and to everyone who made the evening so special.

Two of our residents enjoyed a day trip to the coast, taking in the fresh sea air and spending some quality time together. A change of scenery, good conversation, and a slower pace made it a really special day.

A very special celebration as one of our residents marked his 73rd birthday 🎂

Having lived at Gravers Care Home since 1987, it was lovely to come together to celebrate such an important milestone with him. A day full of smiles, candles, and cake.

Sunshine. Laughter. Seaside strolls.

Last week, some of our residents took a trip to Malta — not just for a break, but for freedom, joy, and new experiences.

At Amitola, supported living doesn’t mean staying still. It means having the right care around you so you can live life fully. Explore new places, build confidence, and create memories that matter.

Because recovery isn’t just about getting by. It’s about getting out there.

And we’re proud to walk beside people as they do just that.

On Friday we celebrated the every day heroes of Amitola at our Christmas do. Those who show up with heart, care, and commitment. These are the awards categories that we gave out. It was a chance to shine a light on those who go above and beyond.

🤝 Team Player Award for the dependable allies
🗣️ Residents’ Choice Award for those who lead with kindness

Look out for the award winners... we'll announce them soon.

What better way to start a Monday than dancing with your community in the kitchen?

These everyday moments of connection are at the heart of what we do at Amitola.

Because recovery isn’t just serious work — it’s also silliness, shared joy, and feeling safe enough to be yourself.

Here’s to the kind of support that makes space for both the hard days and the happy ones 🧡

17/11/2025

This Halloween, the community came together for a night full of joy, dancing, and unapologetic fun.
Because when you're supported to be yourself, it’s not just recovery - it’s celebration!

Moments like these remind us that connection heals in ways that clinical care can’t always reach.
Thank you to every resident and team member who made the night so special 🧡
