Who We Help

Our services are for anyone aged from later teens onwards, who require support to live at home or to access the community.

Services for Independent Living start from a strength-based perspective, in other words – what can you or your loved one do, not what can’t you do! From there we help you to fill in the gaps; to support your goals and live the life you choose.

Where you need longer periods of support, we match each person to a team of support workers. Where more complex care is needed we will train staff to meet your specific requirements. Regular reviews ensure that we continue to provide high quality care and support which can be adjusted as your needs or personal goals change.

“Having the control and the freedom to choose what to do has really changed my life“
