Reachout supported living service

With over 20 years experience, our supported living outreach service, Cintre Reachout, offers one-to-one support to young people and adults with mild to moderate learning difficulties living in Bristol and the surrounding areas.

Our aim is to support individuals with learning difficulties to live as independently as they wish. We are committed to supporting individuals to reach their full potential, make the most of their local community, and maximise their independence.

Cintre Reachout provides:

  • 1:1 tenancy related support (focusing on tenancy needs of an individual)
  • 1:1 day services (focusing on the recreational and vocational needs of an individual)
  • 1:1 community services (meeting a wide range of needs)

Supported living in the communityOur tenancy related support service is funded through Bristol Supporting People Programme. This is a long term service (an individual can be supported for over two years) for people aged 18-49 who have learning difficulties, hold their own tenancy, and have tenancy support needs. Individuals can receive up to 10 hours a week one-to-one support, with a worker visiting them at their home and helping them with a wide range of things they need to help them live independently.

We also support individuals funded through Adult Community Care (formerly Social Services) departments. These support packages can be more individually tailored and can range from 2 hours a week to 24 hours a day seven days a week. We are particularly skilled in supporting individuals who are moving from residential care to supported living, and offer a wealth of knowledge and experience to facilitate a safe and effective resettlement process.

Cintre Reachout is able to provide a limited level of personal care to individuals aged 16 and over who have learning disabilities. The provision of this support is subject to a thorough assessment of the person's needs and any identified risks.
