Inclusion in the Community
how we support social inclusion through events in supported living
Activities and Events
At Care Plus Housing, we understand that engaging our care-users through meaningful activities is essential for their well-being and personal development. Our supported living services in Crawley and the surrounding areas of East and West Sussex focus on fostering a community where individuals with disabilities can thrive. By organising activities and events that resonate with their interests, we create an inclusive atmosphere that promotes active participation and social interaction.
How our activities and events help engage care-users
We implement a range of strategies to assist our clients in mastering daily living skills, ensuring they feel capable and respected in their journey towards independence:
Co-designed with residents
We prioritise the unique preferences and backgrounds of our residents by involving them in the planning of supported activities. This ensures that the activities reflect their interests, cultures, and personal goals, making participation more meaningful.
Creating weekly planners
To enhance accessibility and predictability, we develop visual aids and pictorial timetables that outline the week's activities. This approach not only supports engagement but also helps residents feel more confident about their daily routines.
Varied experiences
Our activities encompass a broad spectrum of creative, social, sensory, and physical options. From arts and crafts workshops to music sessions, nature walks, sensory room explorations, and sports, we aim to cater to diverse needs and interests.
Structured events
We organise regular themed nights, garden barbecues, and community outings, all designed with thorough risk assessments to ensure safety while maximising enjoyment. These events foster a sense of community and belonging among residents.
Monitor engagement
We keep detailed records of residents' preferences and enjoyment levels, allowing us to refine our activity programme continuously. By closely monitoring engagement, we ensure that each individual receives the support that resonates with them.
