Adults can attend our Community Hub which has a choice of two pathways - Health & Wellbeing or Therapy. They can also attend our Vocational Learning Services.
We provide exciting opportunities that enable our adults to develop their social skills and self-confidence, whilst promoting positive mental health and a sense of structure. We promote choice and encourage adults to make personal decisions on their preferences, and help meet individual interests by providing a wide range of activities, including activities that will benefit those wishing to develop their fine motor skills and coordination.
We support our adults to develop their skills and independence through our vocational learning offer, or through a choice of two pathways delivered in our Community Hub. At St Elizabeth’s, adults also have access to our safe and expansive grounds including accessible park, outdoor gyms, onsite canteen, apple orchard and Chapel. We attend activities based in the community using our accessible transport including nature walks, therapeutic trampolining, swimming, bowling, the library and local social trips to cafes, pubs, shops and galleries.
Our aims for Vocational Learning are to develop work skills that are transferrable into external settings, increasing knowledge and understanding of expectations for those considering paid or voluntary work now or in the future.
We aspire to deliver:
- Therapeutic integration through sensory interaction
- Understanding and learning about social norms
- Being creative and experiential, identifying talents
- Building confidence and improving communication skills
The different projects we provide are opportunities to experience a realistic working environment and support adults to grow, create, build and sell products and produce that are then sold on-site and at events.
We encourage all adults who attend the projects to participate at a pace and level that suits them and to take ownership for the success of the project, whether their contribution has been working as an individual or collaborating with others in a group.
We are a friendly, caring and experienced team supporting adults with epilepsy and other complex needs. All staff are DBS Checked and attend regular training.
