Making the transition from child to adult services?
Here at Achieve together we understand that leaving the security of the education system into adulthood can be daunting. It is essential for young people with disabilities and/or special educational needs, that parents/carers start planning early for their future. This transition takes place in Year 9 and will be an ongoing process, not a single event. Having the right information and support will help you and your child make informed decisions.
It is important to talk to your child and find out what they want for their future and who is best placed to help them achieve their aspirations.
How Achieve together can help
Achieve together are one of the UK’s leading providers of support for young adults with learning disabilities and/or autism, including profound and multiple learning disabilities. In addition, we support young adults who are deaf, have hearing or sight loss and experience a range of health and neurological conditions including complex epilepsy.
We support young adults who may present with behaviours which challenge, and/or may present with mental health conditions. The Achieve together Health & Wellbeing Team provides a
range of expert multi-professional support to the young person and their support team, including through our PBS Practitioners, Mental Health Lead, Nursing and Health Facilitation Team, Inclusive Communication Lead, Relationship & Sexuality Advisors and Coproduction Team.
We have a wide variety of support options available, depending on your child’s needs. These include outreach facilities in the local community, supported living, and residential services. We live and breathe our core values, and putting the people we support at the heart of everything we do is pivotal.
