House of St. Martin in Taunton is Langley’s flagship care home. It is a registered care home for men with multiple needs, including substance misuse issues, mental health needs or a learning disability. It provides accommodation for men who require disabled access.

Volunteers form an essential part of the Langley team and make a big difference to Langley and the men and women we work with.
