Our Services

Shared Lives carers open their homes to provide either a short or long term living arrangement to people with a care or support need. It’s similar to fostering, but for adults rather than children. Most importantly, Shared Lives offers personalised support in a safe, family environment, helping people to grow and thrive.

Being part of a community makes us all feel more at home. And that’s what community support is all about. We help our customers to make friends, get involved in special events and become active members of their local community. All with the comfort of a familiar and trustworthy face.

For adults with additional needs, sometimes a purpose-built home is the best option. At Avalon, we provide a number of specialist properties in partnership with housing providers just like these.

We’re lucky at the Avalon family to work with some of the most amazing and inspiring customers and their families. Why not take a look at how our support helps people make meaningful moments, and live the life they want, their way.

We believe that everyone should have the opportunity to continue to learn and grow throughout their lives. We also know how essential it is for our staff to be trained in providing high quality support so that our customers receive the best possible service.

We offer high quality training programmes designed to strengthen the development of personnel across the public, private and voluntary sectors. Our large training room in Harrogate is available to hire, alongside small breakout meeting rooms.

Mental health conditions can affect anyone, at any time. Everyone deserves to have control over their lives, and to be able to access the support they need to achieve their goals and realise their dreams. Through our network of Shared Lives carers and support workers – we can help you overcome mental health challenges to support you to live life your way.
