WE CARE ABOUT YOUR WELLBEING

We believe in the power of continuous learning and providing access to education for all. We offer a caring and nurturing environment for individuals who may struggle with mainstream education, with flexible scheduling to fit their lifestyles and focus on hands-on, experiential learning. Our learning centres are based in Gloucester and Cheltenham, where people can learn skills which promote independence, promote recovery, and enhance quality of life.

We live and breathe social inclusion and our events team know how to have fun. We provide an exciting programme of events that are fully inclusive and open to members of the public. This approach enables people to make friends whilst in a safe and supportive environment. Prosperity Care Events run a monthly night club event, as well as group activities such as surf club, water sports, sculpture and pottery, community gardening, woodland walks and much more.

Our team of specialised Holistic therapists offer a range of treatments which can be hugely beneficial. Studies suggest that holistic therapies can help to reduce stress, promote relaxation and enhance overall physical and emotional health. Our holistic practitioners offer meditation, mindfulness, yoga, massage, acupuncture and EFT. These therapies complement traditional mental health treatments and may help to support overall recovery and wellbeing. Prosperity Holistic Therapies are provided by a team of fully qualified and insured practitioners.

OUR VALUES

Sure we do amazing things. But it’s what we stand for that’s so awesome. Put simply… we care!

01. WE ARE SOLUTIONS FOCUSSED

02. WE ARE BRAVE AND BOLD

We have plenty of experience in the world of care and enjoy a challenge. The path can be confusing but we will do our best to find a solution that fits. “Where there is a will, there is a way.”

We strive to provide the best quality care and are not afraid to speak up to make it happen. We can be the voice for people who might not have one or stand right behind those that do.

03. WE CHAMPION EVERY INDIVIDUAL

04. WE ARE STRONGER TOGETHER

05. WE’VE GOT CARE AT OUR CORE

06. WE WORK TO BE BETTER EVERY DAY

We champion others by listening, supporting and encouraging people to achieve their ambitions. We work together to enable progress and help people to feel valued.

We may not have all the answers, but we do our best to find the experts who do. We will work in partnership with the individual, family, friends and circles of support to provide access to all the specialist care required.

Our Managing Director started his career as a support worker and continues to work closely on the ‘front line’. Care first, business second will always be our motto. ‘You can teach skills but you can’t teach someone to care.’

We know we aren’t perfect and we might not get things right every time. We are constantly learning and are committed to keeping up to date with best practices and training opportunities.

OUR APPROACH

Putting the principles into practice:

Social support - Encouraging people to participate in social activities and connecting them with others with similar interests or experiences can promote a sense of belonging.

Emotional support - Helping people set goals and providing them with opportunities to learn new skills or take on challenges can boost self-esteem. Providing them with tools to manage their emotions or stress, such as relaxation techniques or therapy supports emotional health.

Intellectual support - Providing opportunities for people to learn new skills and access education. This can promote personal growth and a sense of accomplishment.

Physical support - Encouraging people to engage in physical activity, eat a healthy diet and have access to regular medical check-ups, to promote physical health and wellness.

Environmental support - We provide housing-related support to help people with learning disabilities maintain a safe and comfortable home. We help people to learn essential life skills, with the goal of supporting people to live independently and comfortably in their own home.

Occupational - Helping people to identify their passions and goals and providing them with opportunities to pursue them. Supporting employment and career opportunities to enable people to find work and integrate into the community.

Financial support - Helping people budget and offering advice on making informed financial decisions. Our goal is to empower individuals to become more independent and confident in managing their finances.

Spiritual - We offer a non-judgmental space to enable people to be themselves and engage in activities that nourish their spirit. We are supportive of people’s beliefs and promote diversity and equal opportunities.

CARE & SUPPORT OPTIONS

Learning Disability Support

We are dedicated to supporting people with learning disabilities to live the lives they choose. We believe in promoting a sense of identity and encouraging individuals to let their personalities shine. We are advocates for real social inclusion opportunities and strive to set the standard for others to follow.

CASE STUDY

Sandra’s Story

Sandra has a learning disability and autism. For over 30 years, she lived in a residential care setting in a rural location with ten other adults. When Sandra was younger, she enjoyed spending time with others and helping on the farm. In later life, her health needs and interests changed.

Our top priority is to provide high-quality care and support to the people we work with. We listen to their needs and direction, and work with their circle’s of support to find ways to make their goals and dreams a reality. We are committed to moving forwards, keeping life exciting, and celebrating every achievement.

Sandra’s social worker reached out to Prosperity Care and Wellbeing to find an alternative care option. Sandra now lives in a quiet, homely environment with one other person, which offers her and her housemate plenty of space. Sandra’s sister said - ‘Sandra has found a new lease of life and is the happiest and most settled she has been in many years. She has an active social life and the staff at Prosperity Care and Wellbeing are wonderful.’

We are grateful to have been able to support Sandra in finding a living situation that meets her needs and allows her to thrive.

Complex Behaviour Support

We are committed to improving the quality of life for people with disabilities and complex needs. We understand that people may sometimes present with behaviours which can be described as ‘challenging’, such as verbal or physical aggression. We believe that all behaviour is communication and that it is often a tool used to tell us when something is not going well for the individual.

To support people who exhibit these behaviours, we use the Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) model, which focuses on improving quality of life by adapting our

support, environments, and systems to better meet the needs of the individual. By changing our approach and reducing triggers, we are able to reduce the need for behaviours that challenge and improve the quality of life for the individual and those around them.

Physical Disability Support

At Prosperity Care and Wellbeing, we are dedicated to supporting people with physical disabilities. We understand that living with a physical disability can present unique challenges and strive to provide the highest-quality care and support to help people to lead fulfilling, independent lives.

We believe in developing skills, achieving goals and supporting wellbeing. The support we provide for people with physical disabilities is fully tailored to meet each person’s particular needs, personal goals, and lifestyle. Where required, we use assistive technologies to support independence and make sure that people’s homes are suited to their needs.

Mental Health Care

We are committed to supporting people with mental health issues in their journey towards recovery. Our staff are trained to provide compassionate, non-judgmental support to individuals who may be in crisis, recovery, or simply need assistance to maintain their mental well-being.

We offer flexible levels of support that can be tailored to the needs of each individual. This can range from 24-hour support to visiting support, depending on the person’s needs. Our support can include providing companionship, helping to establish routines and skills, learning coping strategies, supporting with medication, accessing education or work, and building self-esteem and motivation.

CASE STUDY

Ryan’s Story

Ryan has been receiving support from mental health services since he was 16. At times, Ryan has struggled with life’s challenges and has had difficulty remembering to take his medications.

Ryan moved into a Prosperity Care and Wellbeing service and now shares a home with two other individuals. He enjoys having staff around ‘in the background’ so that he can seek support when he needs it but likes to ‘come and go’ as he pleases. Ryan is thriving at college and is proudly working towards an apprenticeship .

Ryan said “The staff at Prosperity Care and Wellbeing are great. They are support me when I’m not feeling well, without taking over. They give me my space but genuinely care about me so I know I can talk to them about my worries.”

We are so proud of all that Ryan has accomplished and are grateful to have been able to support him on his journey.

We believe in taking a step-by-step approach to recovery and are prepared to provide additional support when needed, while also stepping back as our clients make progress. Our ultimate goal is to enable people with mental health issues to live fulfilling, healthy lives.

Home Care – Supported Living & Domiciliary Care

Prosperity Care and Wellbeing offer both supported living and domiciliary care

services to help individuals maintain their independence and continue living in their own home or community.

Our supported living services provide assistance with daily tasks such as personal care, medication management, and housekeeping, as well as support with socialisation and engagement in the community. Our care team is dedicated to helping individuals achieve their goals.

Our supported living services offer nurturing and caring environments, supporting people to feel empowered and play an active role in their communities.

Our domiciliary care services provide inhome care and support for individuals who need assistance with daily tasks but do not require the level of support provided in residential care.

Autism & Neurodiversity Support

We have a team of experienced professionals who specialise in supporting

people with autism or neurodiversity. We recognise that every individual is unique, and while we take their diagnosis into consideration, we never lose sight of the person.

We have a track record of successfully supporting individuals with autism to live independently, develop and maintain relationships, and find paid work. Our staff are trained to accommodate different methods of communication, address sensory needs, and help manage anxieties.

In addition to supporting individuals with autism, we also offer support to individuals

with other neurodevelopmental conditions, such as sensory processing difficulties, ADHD, Tourette’s syndrome, selective mutism, and more. Our goal is to help people with autism and neurodiversity live fulfilling, meaningful lives.

Respite Care

We offer respite care services to provide temporary relief for caregivers who may need a break or are unavailable to provide care for a short period of time. Our respite care services can be customised to meet the specific needs of the individual and can be provided in the comfort of their own home or in a residential care setting.

Our respite care services offer a chance for caregivers to take a break, knowing that their loved one is receiving high-quality care in a safe and comfortable environment. Our care team is trained to provide support with activities such as personal care, medication management, and household chores, as well as socialisation and engagement in the community.

Respite care can be a valuable resource for caregivers, helping to prevent burnout and promote balance in their own lives.
