Staffordshire Supported Living

We support individuals with learning disabilities across Staffordshire to take those steps towards living independently and achieving their goals. Working with Registered Housing Providers, we are able to support people to find their own home that suits their needs.

This might include large living space, a garden, a wet room or bathroom to accommodate reduced mobility, as well as local community facilities. We ensure that individual needs and preferences are met and that people are able to easily do the things they want to do.

We support individuals to achieve their goals and dreams, whatever they may be. Our aim is to help people to build their skills and confidence, so they are able to live as independently as possible.

When people come to Staffordshire Supported Living, we take the time to get to know them, their preferences, as well as their hopes and dreams for the future. We support people with a personal discharge plan to achieve their goals and aspirations and ensure they feel they are in control of their own life.

How we support people:

• Working with them to find out their strengths, abilities and preferences – We get to know them, their families, carers advocates and other people who are important to them and their care and support
• Helping individuals to set goals as part of their support plan
• Working with individuals to help them achieve their goals
• Making sure that individuals have easy read information about their rights and choices in whatever format and language they choose
• Providing person-centred practical help for individuals, such as training and support on how to manage their home, their money, gardening, housework and healthy living
• Helping individuals to build relationships and access whatever community activities they would like to take part in
