• Develop their independence

  • Pathway is split into three broad stages that allow for people to set their own individual goal and move on:
  • Engagement – The service is aimed at people whose lives are marked by a lack of routine and planning, and repeated crisis. Their lives are reactive to the things than do rather than purposeful, motivated and determined.
    • Small interventions make a big difference e.g. sitting and having conversations whilst eating or having coffee, colouring-in, playing pool or table tennis. By doing these things trust grows which helps to build small routines and relationships to develop. Outreach, meeting people on the street who may be reluctant to come to the centre.
  • Stabilisation – This service is aimed at those whose lives have some routine, planning, and organisation e.g. someone who comes to the centre every day, at the same time, for the same service.
    • The Partnership Programme gives people the opportunity to volunteer in the centre doing all sorts of work with different levels of responsibility. E.g. tidying rooms after activities and at the end of the day, joining the kitchen team, manage lounge or stores of donated food and clothes.
  • Transition – This service focusses on little things that make a big difference. E.g. support to focus on things. Showcases personal ability to plan and achieve and helps people believe in themselves.
