Respite Provider for Adults with Learning Disabilities

Hello, My name is Karen Flowers, I have been supporting adults with learning disabilities for the last 20 years or more.

It is a small Respite business I run from home.  The service is for anyone with low, moderate or even severe learning disabilities.  Although the business is run from home the fun certainly does not stop there.  Day trips, cinema, bowling, support at family get togethers, meeting up with friends, meals out. Holidays or just a couple of nights away.  I also offer support in the clients home if the parents/carers want to go away themselves and the client is happier in their own home.

Obviously I have been DBS checked, had various training within Social Services and have NVQ Level 3 in Social Care.  If the Service I provide is something that you would be interested in please do not hesitate to contact me whether it's for full time support or just days off from college, holidays or simply now and again.
