Housing/Social Care
New Day Supported living focuses on providing and maintaining good standards of care in our supported living provisions for young adults with low to high level needs of support from the age of 16- 18. Our services are offered under a residential umbrella with a service that is operational 7 days a week for 24 hrs. a day.
We believe that with support and partnership working, young adults can be empowered and prepared to face any challenges in future through direct support to build a foundation, access equal opportunities and exercise their rights. It is important for New Day support staff to work with clients in a person-centred way to meet their needs, wishes and beliefs.
