Promoting Independence...

"Our main area of support is to enable individuals to live independently in their own homes. While independent living is a focus for us, we are aware of the strong foundations which must be put in place to ensure an individual’s placement grows and flourishes. Like a tree using its roots for a strong foundation and ultimately growth; at New Leaf, we understand that often good stories start with similar strong foundations, with ‘roots’ made up of important people in an individual’s life offering positive encouragement and support."

"By involving close friends, family members and relevant outside professionals – we ensure individuals within our care have a strong feeling of connection and stability to their immediate environment which, in turn, branches out into their local community."

"This innovative, inclusive and person-centred approach to placement and living is afforded by working closely with families and professionals. Open discussion and feedback are always appreciated and encouraged. Through these tools we can hope to get the best possible outcome for individuals within our care and support. "
