Posted on the 14th July 2020

Our NEW Social Impact report showcasing highlights from across 2019 is now published. It shows the impact we have made through supporting and promoting independent, healthy, fulfilled lives for our clients in their communities.

We are proud to work with a diverse range of people. We believe that with our support everyone can progress in their chosen path, creating lives enhanced with a sense of purpose and belonging.

Here are a few examples from the report. You can also download the full report at the bottom of the page.
