Community Services for Older People and Adults with Learning Disabilities

Everyone deserves to feel independent, connected and well, right where they live. Our community services cover Medway, Gravesend, Dartford, Faversham, Sittingbourne and the surrounding areas, bringing a hot meal to your door, a helping hand around the home and a warm welcome at our social groups. Whatever stage of life you or your loved one is at, there is something here to make everyday life a little easier and a lot more sociable.

Carers Relief Service

Medway and surrounding areas | Paid for service
Our Carers Relief Service supports adults with learning disabilities and/or autism, with flexible, varied support that is led entirely by each individual and their carer. No two people are the same, so no two support plans are either. We take the time to get to know each person, what they enjoy, what they want to work towards, and how we can help them thrive.
We help people to:
Gain independence and life skills
Make new friends and build confidence
Give their carers a well-earned break, with respite they can rely on

How we can support you

We support people in whatever way works best for them. That might be at home, with a sit-in service, activities, nutritious meals and help with the shopping. It might be out in the community, joining in with activities and hobbies, group trips and events, and support at personal or medical appointments. Or it might be at our social hubs and groups, discos and club nights. Whether it is a regular sit-in service, a helping hand to get out and about, or a lively night out with friends, our team is here to make it happen.
