Our Vision
Our vision is simple, to deliver excellence in how we deliver our services. One of the key tenets of our approach to our service is that we strive to give our members the chance to live a full and integrated life within their local towns and villages. And while they may be challenged intellectually, they have a huge amount to give back and are valued members of their communities.

We believe that our services need to react to the needs of service users – and not the other way around. We are fully focused on providing a service that constantly adapts to the new or emerging circumstances of the people we serve, putting them right at the heart of everything we do.

We look to promote the empowerment of the person with an intellectual disability, providing greater opportunities for advancement not just in their education, but in their life skills and development as happy, well-adjusted individuals who contribute to their community like anybody else.

Each of our members has a completely different set of support needs, and we never look to impose a ‘one size fits all’ solution. Instead, we provide a deeply personalized experience of care, designed around the individual’s unique requirements.

We strongly believe that each individual’s needs are totally unique, so the task of providing support is highly staff intensive.
