Be supported while getting out and about. Our Community Support services help adults with disabilities, autism, learning difficulties, and mental health conditions to enjoy life, build confidence, and connect meaningfully with the world around them.
Our experienced support workers accompany individuals into their communities — helping them access local facilities, attend appointments, participate in activities, and build genuine friendships. We believe that community participation is not a luxury; it is a fundamental part of a fulfilling and independent life.
We understand that every individual has their own relationship with the community around them. That is why our community support is carefully designed to meet each person where they are, at their own pace, on their own terms.
We believe that independence grows through experience. Our whole-person approach encourages meaningful participation, helping individuals develop confidence with every step.
Community support is about more than getting from A to B. We provide balanced, whole-person support that nurtures confidence, builds social connections, and promotes long-term wellbeing through real-world experiences and meaningful participation.
By building strong relationships between our support workers and the individuals they support, we create a trusted partnership that encourages confidence, independence, and genuine enjoyment of community life.
Community support can help with a wide range of activities including shopping, attending GP or hospital appointments, visiting leisure centres, joining community groups, accessing colleges or training programmes, and simply getting out and enjoying local spaces.
The frequency of community support visits is based on your individual assessed needs and preferences. Support can range from a few hours per week to daily visits.
We do our best to match support workers to individuals based on personality, interests, and communication styles. Your comfort and rapport with your support worker is very important to us.
At Empower Life Supported Living, we provide more than just care; we offer a home built on trust, dignity, and respect
