Learning Disabilities Support
What is a Learning Disability?
A learning disability refers to a condition characterised by diminished intellectual capacity and challenges in performing routine activities. The required level of support will vary based on the unique needs of everyone. For instance, an individual with a mild learning disability may require assistance in areas such as community integration and employment acquisition. However, individuals with a severe or profound learning disability may require 24-hour care.
The daily lives of the 1.5 million individuals in the United Kingdom who are living with a learning disability are impacted in various ways. A significant number of individuals depend on their social network, including friends and family, for assistance and encouragement. By employing the services of a specialised carer for individuals with learning disabilities, we facilitate the process of managing their condition for both the individuals and their families.

Shalom Community Services offers personalised care for adults with learning disabilities, with a focus on fostering independence and self-determination. We are committed to ensuring that every individual can lead a meaningful and satisfying life. This is why we offer compassionate and personalised care that supports the growth and well-being of each person.
We do not employ a standardised approach for all situations. We acknowledge that everyone’s condition, circumstances, and preferences may vary. We prioritise close collaboration with individuals and their families to develop a personalised support plan that places customers and their needs and goals at the forefront.
Parents, carers, and family members of individuals with learning disabilities may experience a sense of being overwhelmed when providing care for their loved ones. If you find yourself uncertain about how to effectively manage your loved one's condition or if you need additional support and guidance, our team of Bluebird carers is readily available to offer personalised and compassionate care.
The Shalom Community Services team offers comprehensive support, encompassing not only physical assistance but also emotional and social development opportunities. Our carers will provide compassionate companionship by lending a listening ear to your loved one's concerns and engaging in activities that align with their interests.
Supporting individuals with learning disabilities at home enables them to exert autonomy and make decisions that may not be feasible in more regimented settings, such as residential care facilities. The provision of supported living for adults with learning disabilities has been found to have a positive impact on an individual's overall well-being. This approach allows individuals to reside in a familiar environment and maintain proximity to their social support network, including friends and family.
