Who We Support

Complex Needs. Compassionate Support.

We specialise in supporting adults aged 18 and above with a range of complex conditions — working collaboratively with NHS commissioners, local authorities, and clinical teams to achieve the best possible outcomes.

Complex Mental Health

We provide structured, therapeutic environments for individuals with complex and enduring mental health conditions.

Our support is trauma-informed and recovery-focused, designed to promote stability, wellbeing, and long-term community integration. We work closely with community mental health teams, psychiatrists, and other clinicians to ensure our support complements and enhances clinical care.

We support individuals with:

  • Psychosis and schizophrenia
  • Bipolar disorder
  • Treatment-resistant depression
  • Schizoaffective disorder
  • Dual diagnosis (mental health and substance use)

Personality Disorders

Our staff are trained in evidence-based approaches to support individuals with personality disorders.

We use DBT-informed frameworks and structured support to help individuals build emotional regulation, interpersonal skills, and daily living routines. Our approach focuses on building trust, consistency, and therapeutic relationships that promote long-term stability.

We support individuals with:

  • Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD/EUPD)
  • Antisocial Personality Disorder
  • Narcissistic Personality Disorder
  • Mixed personality presentations
  • Co-occurring mental health conditions

Learning Disabilities

We support adults with mild to profound learning disabilities to live fulfilling, active lives in their communities.

Our support is tailored to each person's unique strengths, communication needs, and aspirations. We work with speech and language therapists, occupational therapists, and other specialists to ensure our support maximises independence and quality of life.

We support individuals with:

  • Mild to profound learning disabilities
  • Down syndrome
  • Fragile X syndrome
  • Prader-Willi syndrome
  • Co-occurring physical health needs

Autism Spectrum Conditions

Our autism-specialist support is built around understanding each individual's unique profile.

We create environments and routines that reduce anxiety, support communication, and enable autistic adults to thrive. Our staff receive specialist autism training and are supported by clinical advisors to ensure our approach is evidence-based and person-centred. We also offer ADOS (Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule) and ADI-R (Autism Diagnostic Interview — Revised) assessments to support formal diagnosis pathways.

We support individuals with:

  • Autism without learning disability
  • Autism with learning disability
  • Pathological Demand Avoidance (PDA)
  • Sensory processing differences
  • Co-occurring mental health conditions
  • ADOS and ADI-R diagnostic assessments

Acquired Brain Injury

We work with individuals following traumatic or acquired brain injury to promote recovery and independence.

Our rehabilitation-focused support is designed to maximise functional ability and quality of life following brain injury. We work alongside neuropsychologists, occupational therapists, and physiotherapists to deliver integrated, goal-focused support.

We support individuals with:

  • Traumatic brain injury (TBI)
  • Stroke and hypoxic brain injury
  • Encephalitis
  • Cognitive and behavioural changes
  • Physical rehabilitation needs

Our approach to complex needs

Whatever the diagnosis, our starting point is always the person — their strengths, their goals, and what matters most to them. We use a range of evidence-based frameworks including Positive Behaviour Support (PBS), trauma-informed care, and recovery-oriented practice to guide our work.

Positive Behaviour Support

We use PBS frameworks to understand the function of behaviour and develop proactive strategies that improve quality of life and reduce the need for restrictive practices.

Trauma-Informed Care

We recognise that many of the people we support have experienced significant trauma. Our approach prioritises safety, trust, and empowerment at every stage.

Recovery-Oriented Practice

We believe in the possibility of recovery and growth for every individual. Our support is focused on building hope, agency, and meaningful participation in community life.
