Services for people
with Learning Disabilties, Learning Difficulties or Autism
Safe & Sound is our life skills course for people with learning disabilities. (Please note this service is NOT for those with Learning Difficulties or Autism)
The programme has 3 main areas:
1. Everyday Skills (e.g kitchen safety, food preparation, managing medications, self-hygiene, staying safe online, fire and carbon monoxide safety, road awareness, etc.
2. Healthy Habits - diet, exercise, managing anxiety, volunteering opportunities, engaging in meaningful activities etc.
3. Healthcare & Medical Awareness– e.g. Healthcare registration checks, awareness and appropriate usage of healthcare.
Linking into our main IAG workstream, we can provide those with learning difficulties and/or autism expert advice around benefit entitlements, debt relief and how to make applications for small grants or purchase white goods.
