Support with everyday tasks in a shared home, building skills, confidence and independence.
Overview
About our Daily Tasks / Shared Living support
Shared living works best when support respects every resident’s routines, choices and privacy. We help with daily tasks in shared or supported homes so life runs smoothly and everyone can build their independence.
From planning meals and doing the shopping to keeping the house in order and managing household decisions, we support you to take part and grow your skills in a familiar setting.
We also support positive relationships between housemates, helping everyone communicate, share responsibilities fairly and feel at home.
