To achieve these outcomes, we work with the individual (and their family, friends, and wider supporter networks) to create strengths-based support plans. As we are all unique, there is no one model of support. Instead, we offer flexible staff teams and structures, able to react and adjust to changing needs and ambitions. This ensures support is individual focused, rather than organisation focused.

At the supported Living service, Briarvale, we have 10 bedrooms with a mix of en-suite and shared bathrooms. There is a large communal kitchen, dining room and living room. There is also a second kitchen where we support individuals to learn daily living skills. This adaptability ensures support is built around the individual, and that every ambition (from wanting to make their own cup of coffee through to finding a job) receives the focus, time and ongoing motivation required to help them be achieved and celebrated
