The service provides a stepping stone to independence, by supporting people to regain lost skills, learn new skills, and adapt to the challenges that living independently can present.

Support workers will support service users to regain functioning, maintain life skills, rebuild their confidence, and promote wellbeing. 28-hour contracts are available on a rolling rota with flexible approaches to shift patterns, including split shifts.
