​How we help



Keystones is a day activity, social hub which provides 4 day a week (Tues, Weds, Thurs & Fri) support for ambulant adults with learning disabilities aged 19+
FUN-FRIENDSHIP & INCLUSION is our Ethos

 

Keystones Centre Ltd provides discreet and appropriate support for adults aged 19+ with learning disabilities.

We are able to offer support ONLY to ambulant adults who do not require a wheelchair and who have independent personal care skills.

 

Our aim is to provide a safe, high quality, fun filled day-to-day environment to encourage and stimulate our clients.

We believe that each person is an individual, which is why our objective is to meet each of our client’s unique needs.

 

PLEASE NOTE:

Whilst our primary aim is to support our clients to engage in inclusive activities that support in maintaining skills previously acquired in school & college, our vision is to gradually increase the independence and sociability of our clients.
We maintain that the  compatibility and safety of our clients is paramount to our Keystones vision, we therefore urge you to take note that Keystones Centre Ltd does not provide support for clients who display physical challenging behaviours or who require 1:1 support for behaviours that challenge whether physically or verbally.

We strongly advise that parents or carers contact us privately initially in relation to potential clients' behaviour history/support needs, we do also insist on total honesty in relation to past or current support needs relating to the behavioural profile of potential clients.
This is solely to protect the potential client and to ensure that clients are not involved in unnecessary and negative consultations that could have a detrimental impact on their self esteem and progress to date.

Our service is proving extremely valuable to clients who since joining Keystones, have increased social and independence skills whilst making valuable friendships and forging links with other local service providers.
Fun, Friends & Inclusion remains our ethos.

 

We feel that one of our best features is our FREE pick up and drop off service. We will pick you up from your home and bring you back again at the end of the day all free of charge.

 

FUN , FRIENDSHIP & INCLUSION IS OUR ETHOS.
