Our established service · available now

Support for adults whose needs have outgrown ordinary care.

This is the work Care Horizons has been doing since 2004: adults with autism, learning disabilities, mental health needs and behavioural distress, supported at home and in their community — from a few hours a week to twenty-four hours a day.

What we support people with

Autism

Support built around sensory needs, predictability and the same familiar faces, rather than a rotating rota.

Autism support →

Learning disabilities

Practical daily support, community access and building independence at the person's own pace.

Learning disability support →

Mental health

Support at home for adults living with mental ill health, including where other arrangements have broken down.

Mental health support →

Behavioural distress

Where distress has been read as behaviour, and the response has made things smaller rather than better.

Behavioural distress →

Supported living

Support in a person's own tenancy, built around what they want their life to look like.

Supported living →

24-hour and intensive support

Waking nights, sleep-ins and intensive staffing arrangements, assessed individually. These are established and available now — they are not the same as the two-week rotational live-in model we are still developing.

24-hour & intensive support →

Hospital discharge

Support put in place quickly so a discharge can go ahead and hold.

Hospital discharge →

Home help and cleaning

A dependable home help and cleaning service for local households, run by the same vetted people.

Home & lifestyle services →

How this differs from our older people's service

It does not differ in approach — same employed team, same continuity, same willingness to decline work we cannot do well. It differs in who it is for and in how it is usually funded and referred. Many specialist packages come through commissioners, social workers and hospital discharge teams; most older people's enquiries come from families directly.

If you are not sure which fits, that is normal. Tell us what is happening and we will work it out with you.
