Learning Disability

Our specialist Learning Disability service is designed for people with mild, moderate, severe or borderline learning disabilities, challenging behaviours, and a co-morbid mental health disorders-Dual Diagnosis, who may have a forensic history and autism spectrum disorder.

We aim to provide time limited, usually 12-18 months, evidence based therapeutic programs with a view to help our service users moving on to less restrictive and more independent placements, and hence reduce the need for more expensive placement options. By doing so we help in the reduction of a range of challenging behaviours like severe self-harm, fire setting, sexual offending and assaults etc.

Complex and Challenging Behavior

We provide support and supervision to our residents and staff via our specialist mental health and learning disability team.

Often this term is associated with people with learning disability. In fact challenging behaviours are the product of interaction between an individual and its environment and frequently challenging behaviours label is put on individuals when their particular behaviour outgrows the service capacity.
