Care & Support

We operate one of the largest directly managed Care and Support services in Wales. Annually, we care for over 1000 people from different cultural, social, economic and ethnic backgrounds. Our focus is on promoting inclusion, aspiration and wellbeing among our clients through positive change.

Our range of housing, support and care services actively ensure that our clients gain a real enjoyment from living in their homes. We want to be responsive, creative and flexible in the way we provide our services to ensure good quality and value.

Care and Support mission

To support and care for people, where they live and in their community, to enable them to enhance their wellbeing, feel safe and respected and to be more independent, empowered and included.

Vision

To establish a reputation for excellence, innovation and leadership in the support and care of people founded on promoting inclusion, encouraging aspiration, enhancing wellbeing and ensuring dignity and respect.

Values

We are person-centred in all that we do. We respect that each person has their own particular needs, preferences and aspirations. Our core values are founded on respect for individual rights and responsibilities and respect for diversity. Ensuring the involvement of people we support and care for is central to our approach. Our values are ingrained in all we do, in our behaviour and the environments we create for people.
