Story

Livability is the disability charity that is committed to enabling children, young people and adults to live a life that adds up for them.

What makes life livable is never down to just one thing - its the sum of many things. From friendship to fun; from companionship to community; from thrill-seeking to thriving it all adds up to Livability.

Through a wide range of disability care, special education, and rehabilitation services, we promote inclusion and wellbeing for all. Together, we work to see people take part, contribute and be valued. We put the elements in place that all add up to connected lives.

We empower people in our care. We do this by enabling the people we support to make their own choices. We do this by working with the people we support to co-produce care and special education plans as a central part of our approach.

Person-centred, flexible approach: We know that everyone needs and aspirations are different that all sorts of things add up to living well. That's why our approach puts the person we support at the centre of their care planning. We help individuals work out what their care needs are, to choose the support they want and to have control over their life.

Community connections that grow health and wellbeing: We work to create connections that help people thrive. Research shows that personal health and wellbeing does better when people enjoy supportive networks. We support the people who use our services to follow their interests and get involved with activities in their community. They tell us they do better when they have a network of support around them.

Valuing people and working with strengths: We help people identify their strengths and their capabilities, rather than what they lack. This approach helps people make use of their existing skills, knowledge and relationships.
