SUPPORTED LIVING SERVICES

Supported Living that feels like home

At Lighthouse Homecare Ltd, we support adults aged 18 and above to live with greater independence, confidence, and choice within a safe, supportive home environment. Our approach is person-centred, compassionate, and outcomes-focused, helping individuals build life skills, feel secure, and stay connected to their community.

A service built around the person

Your goals. Your routine. Your choices.

Supported Living is more than just a support, it’s about building a meaningful life. We work alongside each person to understand what matters to them, create a personalised support plan, and deliver flexible care that adapts as needs and goals change.
