Pathway to Idependence
One of our on-site cottages is currently accommodating residents who wish to develop their independence skills.
These residents are completing the national NPTC Award, and have personal targets that they wish to achieve depending on their current skill level. These targets cover a wide spectrum, with some residents hoping to move into the community and live independently, others wanting to develop skills to enable them to be less dependent on staff support.
The admission criteria for those who choose to participate in this training programme is epilepsy, learning disability and sometimes other associated health issues. For further details on this programme click here
