Supporting people to live in their own homes

We have over 30 years’ experience in supporting people with learning disabilities to live independently.

What do we mean by supported living?

Our person-centred, personalised support and outcomes-based approach ensures people can live independently in their own home.

What is Supported Living?

We provide supported living for adults with learning disabilities and other support needs, enabling people to live in their own home and be part of their community.

The person we support holds the tenancy and is responsible for household bills. We provide support in different places, like shared homes, schemes with individual flats, or outreach to a family home.

This isn’t just accommodation – it’s a home of their own where they will receive the support they need to thrive. It’s independence, personal growth and wellbeing.


Your life your way

We build support around each person we work with, and do not try to fit people into a “service”.

During assessment and support planning, we work to understand what the person can do for themselves and what they need support with. We agree on how they wish to get out and about in their community and what they like to do.

Our co-production approach ensures the person we support has choice and control over what they want to achieve and what a good life looks like to them. That may be things like:

  • Learning life skills and domestic chores

  • Making healthier choices, like personal care and food

  • Support to manage finances

  • Going to college, having a job or volunteering

  • Attending day opportunities and other community services

The level of support is determined by each person’s needs, from just a few hours per week, to 24-7 support.

Together we make it possible
