Welcome to Glasallt Fawr

Glasallt Fawr is a registered charity providing a rural residential home for adults with learning disabilities.

The Welsh place name Glasallt Fawr, meaning big blue woods on a hill, is derived from the large woods on site which are smothered with bluebells in the summer.

Glasallt Fawr is situated between the market town of Llandovery and the village of Llangadog, overlooking beautiful Welsh countryside.

Our son Mathew has Down’s syndrome. He moved to Glasallt Fawr in September 2010 having previously spent 3 years at a Mencap residential college. Glasallt Fawr provides a safe, caring environment and Mathew has settled in well. Each day is structured to provide activities both on and off the site, encompassing a variety of workshops, social activities and outings. Living at Glasallt Fawr allows Mathew to continue to develop independence and the staff are open to tailoring his timetable to suit his particular interests and needs.
