ON MY SIDE
The organisation provides supported accommodation for people with learning disabilities who are in need of appropriate long term accommodation. We also provide daytime activities. We are committed to enabling the people we support to live their lives in a fulfilling way as independently as possible. We also offer advice and guidance to local families of people with learning disabilities.
