How We Help
Our Approach
Staying Connected
That’s why we encourage regular visits to our sites, but realise this is not always possible. As such, we have introduced a Facebook-based service that helps families stay in touch and view updates and pictures on residents’ progress and any activities they have been involved in. All service users’ accounts are private and can only be viewed by authorised family members.
We also have Skype video-calling, should you wish to see and talk to a service user in real time. Of course residents and families can also keep in touch by phone, with some service users also able to use email on their own computers.

Believe
Believe in everyone, whatever their ability and background, has a place in society and should have the same opportunities to achieve.
Listen
Listen to help us face problems head-on, and work with residents to find practical and realistic solutions. At all times, we guide and are open with families and friends.
Rights
The maintenance of all entitlements associated with citizenship.
Strive
Strive to be transparent with their decisions and actions at all times. They are trusted to help those of us who are the most vulnerable and complex people in society today.
