Full service description:

We provide support to people with a wide range of disabilities including cerebral palsy, epilepsy, acquired brain injury, learning difficulties and mental health problems. We are registered with the Care Inspectorate for support services. We are both approachable and flexible as a service, which is exemplified by our service hours ranging from 24 hours a day coverage to much smaller packages of care. We can even help arrange holidays and short breaks for customers who are already supported by us. Currently we provide support to people living in the Renfrewshire, East Renfrewshire and Glasgow areas but the service is open to people out with these areas.
