In 2017, when a rather amazing young adult, Lucy was nearing the end of her college career, we had an idea….. We wanted to create a safe and secure home for Lucy and other young adults with differing needs, that enabled them to have their own space in which they feel safe, supported, able to be as independent as they can be in their local community and that gave them genuine choices in the way they wanted to live .
We also wanted them to be able to access work opportunities in the local community in Yeovil and if appropriate, work towards being financially rewarded in a way that young adults with learning difficulties or those on the autism spectrum are not normally recognised for.
And we did it! We successfully opened our first home in 2019, and plan to roll out our model in other regions.
