Welcome To Stars Day Service Ltd

At STARS we provide a bespoke day service supporting adults aged 18+ with additional needs/disabilities. We target age appropriate needs to include education, life skills and socialising through our structured timetable. We feel keeping our timetable consistent helps with familiarity and routine.

We strive to support the adults that we care for and work with, to achieve their full potential in life and to become as independant as they can, regardless of how complex their needs/disabilities may be. Our staff ratio is 1:3 and we offer a higher support of 1:1 if required.

All adults are individuals and it is important for us to meet personal requirements. We offer learning through teaching academic skills, physical activities, life skills, drama, cookery and healthy living. We respect religious and cultural beliefs, physical needs and emotional and social growth; enabling all adults within our care to become confident and contribute to society.

Our mission: "At STARS (Service Teaching Adults Realistic Skills) our mission is to build confidence and self esteem in adults with disabilities / additional needs to enable them to reach their full potential in life".

We aim to:

- Create a lively and friendly atmosphere, where all are welcome.

- Encourage and support the adults within our service to reach goals, that they have personally identified for themselves as valuable and important achievements.

- Focus on age appropriate interaction with our adults with similar interests and join other groups within the local community for learning and social activities.

- Be consistent in our educational structure which supports our academic programme.

- Encourage and support our adults by providing a stimulating and challenging environment, focusing on personalisation, learning and socialising.

- Ensure all adults are included whilst respecting freedom of choice.

- Ensure safety by completing risk assessments as necessary.

- Maintain good relationships with parents/carers/social workers.

We work closely with Integrated Learning Disability Services (ILDS). At STARS everyone has their own personal centered plan which is regularly updated with their needs and choices. We liaise with Childrens' Services which enables us to help support a smooth transition.
