SUPPORTED LIVING

Many people with learning disabilities aspire to live in their own home. With the right support, this aspiration can become a reality.

Homelessness

We deliver support to disadvantaged people in our communities, many who have complex needs. This includes domestic abuse services.

Young People & Care Leavers

We support young people and care leavers to develop the skills and confidence they need to live independently.

Semi-Indepedent Living

We support young people and care leavers to develop the skills and confidence they need to live independently.

Semi-Independent Supported Living

Our semi-independent homes are more than just somewhere to live. They bridge the gap between childhood and adulthood so that a young person is prepared for the challenges of living independently.

We provide supported living placements for young people aged 16 and over. Our main aim is to provide safe and high quality accommodation in which our young people can develop and enhance their independent skills. Supported Living provides a nurturing, supportive environment for young people transitioning to independent adult living. We undertake a complete assessment for each young person to determine their abilities to provide an individual plan to develop independence, access further learning and to support young people to reach their goals and aspirations as they prepare for adult living.

Our Semi-Supported Living service includes

• A tailored independent living programme
• Accommodation available 365 days a year with 24 hour support
• Support in accessing education, employment and training
• Accommodation which is maintained, decorated and furnished

In addition, we support each young person:

• To be aspirational, encouraging them to believe they can and will succeed
• With care and compassion, building trust over time
• To build their skills, access training and get into work
• To recognise and build strong, healthy and safe relationships
