Having support from Croydon Mencap means the person being supported and their family take the lead what is provided, when, and by whom. Support can be flexible as life circumstances change, with the focus of the support adapting as new needs emerge, and as outcomes become achieved, etc. This relationship between Croydon Mencap and family is one of trust, transparency, and flexibility. Croydon Mencap can receive your budget, account for all spending and help you budget for what you need.
Individuals with Learning Disabilities and their families can have as much or as little involvement as they want, including being part of the recruitment and selection of your support workers, having access to any online support records, regular meetings with the co-ordinator.
