What We Do
What is supported living?
Supported living is about enabling people with disabilities to live their lives as independently as possible with assistance from a support team to facilitate their goals.
This support extends to providing different types of personal care to assist with activities such as; shopping, dressing, washing, cooking, laundry and going to work to name a few.

An Important Role
How the Role makes a Difference
Support Workers play an important role in our society, far greater than a lot of people previously realised. The Coronavirus has shown people how instrumental Carer's and Support Workers are at keeping our vulnerable adults safe and well in the community.
The entire Health and Social Care Sector was kept going by the hard working, courageous staff in the Industry, for the first time highlighting just how significant the role of support worker is.
