Helping engagement with the community

At Care Plus Housing, we understand the importance of community engagement for our clients. Our community support services are designed to empower individuals with disabilities, learning disabilities, and mental health challenges to participate actively in their local communities. By fostering social inclusion, we help our clients build meaningful connections, enhance their quality of life, and develop their independence.

 

 

How We Help with Community Engagement

We offer a range of services to support our clients in accessing community resources. 

Fostering Links
We actively build partnerships with local community centres, leisure groups, libraries, colleges, and volunteering opportunities. These connections enable our clients to become more integrated into their communities.

Support Access
Our dedicated support workers assist clients by arranging transport and accompanying them to appointments, events, and social occasions, ensuring they feel confident and safe in new environments.

Breaking Down Barriers
For clients who experience anxiety or behavioural challenges, we provide gradual exposure to community spaces. This approach helps to reduce fear and build comfort over time, allowing for more enjoyable participation in community life.

Community-Based Goals
We incorporate community access into person-centred support plans. For example, setting a goal to visit the local gym once a week encourages our clients to engage with their surroundings and promotes regular physical activity.

Social Inclusion for Complex Needs
Understanding the unique challenges faced by our clients, we tailor our strategies to support their specific needs. Our aim is to create an inclusive environment where every individual can thrive and feel valued.
