Our Learning Disability Support Services provide essential, innovative person centred support for individuals by helping people with learning disabilities/physical disabilities and complex conditions to access to and continue education and development, live in their own tenancies, paid employment opportunities, life skills development and meaningful activities, achieve their desired outcomes and become more involved in their communities. We also support neurodiverse adults with autism (ASD) and behavioural supports (ADHD), often transitioning from school. Autism is not a learning disability but in our rural areas, there are few supports that adults can be signposted to.

We have multi-trained teams who often support individuals who are unable to be supported by anyone else due to complex issues. However, we often identify people, who may be able to be signposted to our other community support networks or alternatives. We currently require two 35-hour Support Workers for
