Our service support people with various health and social care needs including mental health,learning disabilities, brain injuries or complex care needs to live a more independent and enriching life. Our schemes offer an alternative to residential care, helping people to live independently. You have complete control over how and when you receive support.

You decide on the support you want and how often you need it. Our teams will work closely with you to co-create a personalised support plan focusing on your goals, interests, and skills.

Providing person-centred support

At Cuffline Care, our residents are at the heart of everything that we do. We work in partnership with each person, agreeing together how we will support them to be as independent as possible. We also listen to the views of their families and the professionals who may be supporting them.

Each individual receives emotional and physical support from a specialist staff team who are trained to meet their specific needs. We carefully match our team members to each person so that we can nurture trusting and positive relationships. With individually tailored support from people they feel comfortable and secure with, tenants quickly grow in confidence.

16-25 Independent and Semi-Independant Supported Living

Our service is designed to support young people to make a smooth transition into adulthood so they are prepared to live independently. We work hard on delivering the extra support our young people need so that they successfully go onto employment, education and move forward with their lives, entering into their communities comfortably and ultimately, living independently.

We will work with the individual to develop a support plan which will take into account the holistic needs of the individual. This care package will be part of their plan to eventually move forward independently. Tailored plans include emotional support and practical help in education, health and day-to-day issues.

We also help young people understand how to cook, budget and manage household tasks. During the young people’s stay with us, we encourage them to develop independence and as time progresses, once they become more competent, the level of assistance reduces. Support is always available for as long as young people are in our setting.
