• Accessing the local community, including shopping, appointments and social activities
• Building confidence and promoting independence
• Encouraging hobbies, interests and new experiences

One day you could be supporting someone on a trip to the cinema, local pub or community event, while the next you could be helping them develop life skills at home, enjoy a film night or achieve a personal goal.
