Clients
The people who use our services are at the heart of all we do. It’s their ambitions, interests and desire to go beyond expectation that drives what we provide, every day.
People come to us in a variety of ways; some are referred by carers or health and social professionals, others find out about us through family or friends in the community. We also accept self-referrals and referrals from professionals so if you or someone you know would like to know more about our services, please contact us today to find out more.
You can find out about just some of our clients and their own stories here.

Our expert staff enable people to improve their skills for independence. For some, this might be help to prepare for moving out of home. For others, this might be support to live more independently within the family home. Diverse activities include cookery, budgeting, housekeeping, communication and teamwork skills.
