Our mission is simple: to empower individuals, strengthen families, and uplift communities through acts of kindness, support, and service.
We empower people with learning disabilites, autism and mental health needs to live full, independent lives through personalised, high quality support
We are committed to creating lasting change by providing critical resources, volunteer opportunities
We offer flexible support- whether its a few hours a week or 24/7. Tailored to each person's goals, aspirations or lifestyle. Our support include Supported Living or Domiciliary Care, and pathways to greater independence through life skills, social inclusion and meaningful activity.
You First Support Services works in close collaboration with local authorities to deliver tailored, community-based support for adults with learning disabilities, autism, and mental health needs.
We recognise that care doesn’t just impact the individual, it touches the whole family. That’s why we work closely with family members, building trusted partnerships to ensure our support is not only person-centred, but also responsive to the needs, insights, and experiences of those who know their loved one best.
"I’ve been supported by You First for four years, and it’s changed my life. Before, I struggled with a small team that didn’t meet my needs. Now, I have a reliable support team, real control over my rota, and a stronger relationship with my family. I help interview staff, travel to concerts and festivals, and even work as an Oliver McGowan co-trainer. Thanks to You First, I’m living independently, with confidence, choice, and joy.
Working at You First, I realised not only was I making a positive difference to the lives of others, it was having a positive impact on my own life.
Collaboration is integral through our success with our Parent led Advisory Board and support staff led Team Member Board
