LIFE SKILLS - With a number of our clients living independently, we aim to provide appropriate advice and support in order for them to achieve their full potential in their own homes.


ARTS & CRAFTS, MEDIA, IT AND PHOTOGRAPHY - We offer our clients the opportunity to stretch their imagination one step further. From expression painting and digital photography to publishing newsletters in our computer suite.


NUMERACY AND LITERACY - Sessions are in place enabling clients to build on and improve these core educational skills, these are not carried out in a formal classroom setting but rather as informal learning through games of hangman etc.


EDUCATIONAL TRIPS - Our clients feel it important to gain knowledge and understanding of their surroundings, the wider environment and different  cultures. All trips are chosen and researched by clients.
