Learning disabilities

Providing supported tenancies within our purpose-built homes

About our learning disabilities service

We provide 1-1 support between the hours of 8am – 8pm and an out of hours service between 8pm to 8am seven days a week.

Our aim is to provide an individual service to our customers, working with other services our experienced and trained support workers will follow their personal plan of assessed needs.

We will visit at agreed times and provide agreed support to enable customers to build on, learn new or maintain the existing skills they have.

The tenancy with support is for as long as customers are assessed as needing it.

With regular multi agency reviews customers support plan will change and in line with this so will the 1-1 support we provide.

Support will always include tenancy related support to ensure the basis of a good foundation for customers to remain in their property for as long as they need it and want to, it can however also include support very much tailored to their emotional/mental health or social needs.

If they decide to move on to other accommodation we can support them to do that in a positive way.

Outreach services

We can support you to manage your tenancy in a very similar way to the supported tenancies but at a lower level if needed.
