Options for Life
Options for Life enables local people with a learning disability to advance their personal development and lead a full life in the community, using the support and friendship of staff and volunteers. The organisation has a Christian philosophy which is the foundation of all of the services and activities that we provide. We offer a wide range of small innovative area-based services, including a service for Asian women, a service for people with profound and multiple learning disabilities, an African Caribbean service, a service for people aged over 50, a Supporting People service, a service for parents with learning disabilities and their children, an art service, community cafes and a social business, offering household maintenance and gardening services for paying customers. We also have a hydropool and sensory room, both of which are available for hire by individuals and community groups.
