Promoting Positive lives in Learning Disability

We work with individuals who have a learning disability and associated complex mental health and/or forensic needs.

Our aim is to promote positive living in the community. We aim to improve the well being and quality of life of our service users to help them lead safe and independent lives.

We work closely with other services including day opportunities, community teams, adult centres and the voluntary sector.
