Learning Disability Services

Our Learning Disability services range from residential care homes through to supported living, short breaks, respite and day services. We also help young people and their families transition from children’s services to adult support settings.

We are committed to providing person-centred, responsive support to people with learning disabilities, following an ‘Active Support’ approach that helps people gain skills, confidence and control of their lives.

Our staff teams are all trained in Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) to understand people better and give the right support at the right time. PBS is about improving quality of life and helping people with more complex behavioural needs to learn new skills without unnecessary restrictions.

We deliver a full programme of PBS training for staff at all levels in conjunction with the British Institute of Learning Disabilities (BILD).

This is how we make a difference...
