Shared Lives - Support in a Family Environment

What can you do with a Shared Lives carer?

Time spent with a Shared Lives carer is designed around each individual’s interests and goals.

Activities may include:

  • Learning new skills or improving confidence
  • Trying new hobbies at home or out in the community
  • Attending health appointments, college, or other activities
  • Volunteering or gaining work experience
  • Receiving support during transitions, such as moving into independent housing or leaving hospital.

Shared Lives creates a supportive, flexible environment where individuals can thrive.
