How we can help

We offer supported accommodation to adults, to help people with a learning or physical disability, autism or a mental health issue to live successfully within a community.

Our service is personalised to the needs of the people we support. This could include help with budgeting, claiming benefits, dealing with debts, finding local courses and activities – and much more. We work with people to help them develop their confidence around things like using public transport, keeping their home safe and tidy, looking after their health, and communicating with people.

When people are ready to move on to live more independently, we also support them to find a new place to live.

The people we support

People typically come to us because they are leaving hospital or accommodation with more intensive support. They may need our help to adjust to life outside of an institutional care setting, and to develop a greater level of independence. They may be at risk of abuse or self-neglect, or it could be that they are unable to remain in their current accommodation.

When someone is referred to us, we carry out a risk assessment. This helps us to see whether we can provide the right support to that person, and also to check whether they could pose a danger to our existing residents. If we have to refuse someone’s application, we will explain clearly, and will try to suggest alternative options for them.
