Description
Our highly specialist, independent service improves quality of life for thousands of people, living as independently as they wish. Building skills, growing confidence, and enabling greater social inclusion through high quality and forward-thinking support
We support people with a learning disability to live how and where they choose as some of our supported living services are purpose-built or have been adapted and use technology that helps people to live as independently as possible.
For many people who want to live independently, getting the right care and support is just as important as finding the right home. We can provide personal support to help you with every day things like getting dressed, cooking a meal, taking part in your favourite community based activities.
The support we can provide is totally flexible from a couple of hours a week to 24 hours a day, seven days a week depending on what you need from us.
