Homes Together

Summer is officially here!

There’s something incredibly uplifting about the longer days, the brighter evenings, and the gentle warmth of the sun. The change in seasons brings a whole new set of sensory experiences, from the smell of cut grass to the sound of bees in the garden.

For the people we support at Homes Together, summer means a shift towards more outdoor living and making the most of the beautiful weather safely and comfortably.

Here’s to a brilliant summer ahead.

Having a hobby that’s entirely your own is a wonderful thing. Whether you love painting, reading, knitting, or collecting, dedicating time to something you are passionate about gives the day structure and purpose.
It’s also a brilliant way to unwind!

We believe that everyone should have the freedom to pursue their interests. At Homes Together, we love seeing the people we support develop their own unique hobbies and proudly share their creations and achievements with the rest of the house.

Creating opportunities for connection is part of everyday life for the people we support, where even a simple conversation can have a meaningful impact.

This Loneliness Awareness Week, we're reminded of the power of community.

At Homes Together, building a genuine family atmosphere means that the people we support always have someone to share a joke with, watch a film with, or simply sit quietly beside.
True friendship makes a house a home.

Spending time outdoors is a key part of everyday life for the people we support, and something as simple as a good walk can make a real difference to how the day feels.

We love exploring the beautiful countryside and local towns on our doorstep at Homes Together. Supporting people to get outside and enjoy the fresh air is a vital part of keeping both body and mind healthy.

Making the most of time outdoors plays a key role in supporting wellbeing.

For the people we support, incorporating fresh air and sunlight into daily routines can help boost mood, encourage relaxation, and promote positivity.

At Homes Together, helping the people we support make the most of these brighter days is a big priority. Whether it’s through having a morning coffee on the patio or taking a leisurely stroll, enjoying time outdoors – preferably in the sunshine! – it helps us all feel better.

There’s something special about time in nature 🌿

For the people we support, being outdoors offers a chance to relax, connect, and enjoy meaningful moments.

From planting to just listening to the birds, it all makes a difference 💚

Nature provides a brilliant sensory experience that benefits us all.
At Homes Together, spending time in the garden is a much-loved part of the day for many of the people we support, offering a peaceful space to relax and enjoy the fresh air.

Feeling at home makes all the difference 💛

For the people we support, having a space that feels safe, calm, and personal helps create a sense of comfort and wellbeing.

This Mental Health Awareness Week, we’re celebrating the importance of environments that help us truly relax.

Did you know that animals can have an incredible impact on people's wellbeing? 🐕‍🦺 Animals can help with reducing anxiety and provide comfort. They're also great for teaching responsibility and building confidence - the bond between people and animals is truly powerful. At Homes Together, we recognise how important these connections can be for the people we support. That's why we always look for ways to promote independence and a sense of purpose in everyday life.

"Our thirteen homes offer exceptional care and support for support for young adults with a range of support needs.

We're committed to helping each person thrive in a safe and nurturing environment. Every individual deserves a place they can truly call home.

Happy World Art Day! 🎨

At Homes Together, creativity is an important part of life in our homes. Whether it's painting, drawing, crafts or other creative activities, we support people to express themselves and develop new skills.

Art brings joy and helps builds confidence, giving everyone a chance to share their unique perspective with the world.

Here's to celebrating creativity in all its forms!
