About Us

We Provide Care

Heading Forward Homes is a family based Semi-independent home and Bespoke Care facility for vulnerable young people aged between the ages of 16 – 18 and standalones for 18+.

Here at Heading forward homes we understand the challenges young people may face as they prepare to leave local authority care. We aim to provide the emotional and practical tools required for our young people to be able to independently support themselves when they move on to their own homes. Heading Forward Homes would like to ensure the support our young people receive will make the move from ‘looked after child’ to ‘leaving care team’ a smooth transition and equip them with the knowledge needed as they head forward into their new chapter of independence.

our Service

SUPPORTED LIVING

The supported living scheme helps individuals with autism, mental health, learning and physical disabilities, and associated complex needs to live independently as possible in the community. We give the service user an opportunity to choose where and how they want to be supported. We focus on individual based outcomes to allow individuals to grow and develop. Things like personal dignity, control over decision making, quality lifestyle, social and leisure, financial security, accommodation and relationships are the individual based outcomes we focus on.

We work with adults aged 18 or over, who have a range of learning and physical disabilities and complex needs.

Our values & Aims

At Heading Forward Homes ‘It is our mission to, Engage, Empower and Enable every young person, to believe they have what it takes to reach for the life opportunities they desire, through a process of tailor-made programs in our service provision, enabling them to create a positive future.’

The young people within our care will be supported in the pursuit of their own interests and staffs are committed to working with each young person and encourage them to participate in leisure activities and appropriate social interaction locally.

Our staffing team can provide care and support to young people who may have experienced abuse, neglect, and exclusion in the past. They recognize that many young people must regain control of their lives, their behaviour and provide the necessary structure and boundaries to enable them to do so.
