No, we are not commissioned to provide transport as part of our service agreements. However, we do like to help where possible. When we visit with you to discuss timetables and days we will also look if there are times we can provide transport support. We understand that transport for people can be challenging and can be a barrier to accessing services but we are proud to say that for most people we support we are providing at least half of their required journeys each week.
What Sessions and Activities do we offer?
We love presenting people with the opportunity to explore a diverse and wide ranging set of sessions.
These could be completely new to them or a passion they want to improve on. It’s about reviewing the skills of the person and adapting the session to them.
This enables the people we support to gain skills they never knew they had. It’s also promotes independence, confidence and transferable skills.
From Art to Zumba we have everything covered and we have a huge amount of fun.
We are so lucky have film makers, musicians, artists, bakers, sports coaches and many more highly qualified staff to make sure what ever session we deliver is to a high and informed standard.
