Active Choices Care Services

Here at Active Choices Care we offer a wide range of services to cater for many care and support needs for adults with any physical or learning disability. The services we offer are:

 Social Care Support

This is general support to help you access your local community and activities. It can be used to help you do your grocery shopping, visit your library or swimming baths. You can also access community and group activities run either by ourselves or other organisations. You can use your Direct Payments or Personalised Budget funds to pay for your support with this.

 Supported Living

Whether you live alone or with friends, supported living packages are designed to provide you access to 24 hour support. All supported living packages offered by Active Choices can be linked into Social Care Support and Supported Employment, to give you a broad spectrum of possibilities.

 Assisted Living

This is similar to Supported Living, but is not on a 24 hour basis. It may be that you only need to have support for a few hours a day, such as at meal times. Again you can link this support into any other support offered from ourselves. They key to our packages is “Flexibility”.

 Supported Holidays

Each year Active Choices offer a selection of holiday and break opportunities, where the holiday is given as a package price. This consists of the actual holiday cost to you, and the care cost required to go on the holiday. Thanks to our “Not For Profit” status, we can offer some very good holidays and breaks at very reasonable prices. You don’t need to be a current customer of Active Choices to take advantage of one of our breaks or holidays.

 Supported Employment

It is our great belief that everyone should have the opportunity to work, and do something constructive and worthwhile. Employment provides a sense of pride and achievement, as well as a means of making new friends. Active Choices is committed to realizing individuals potential, with real work opportunities, and a chance to make a difference. We don’t believe in the words “I can’t”. We will help you and show you how “You can”.

 Supported Day Services

Later in 2011 Active Choices hope to secure a premises which will allow us to offer 5 days a week day services. We intend to actively promote supported employment as part of these services as much as possible. Such a premises will provide us with work and training studios.
