Each person has their own individual flat and requires 1:1 support throughout the day. This includes but is not limited to support with personal care, support to eat and drink and medication administration

The people’s ages range from 22- 82, and they all enjoy a range of different activities. We support three ladies and two gentlemen

These include swimming, going to the cinema, out for meals or a coffee. They also enjoy arts and crafts, films, musicals, music events and the theatre.

The people we support have their own wheelchair adapted vehicles, so a driver is preferred but not essential.
