Daily Living & Life Skills
Practical skills for greater everyday independence.
This service is about learning to do things yourself. Cooking a meal, doing the shopping, managing your money, catching the bus, planning your week, using your phone. We teach the skill with you, in real life, one step at a time — until you do not need us for it any more.
- 01
People who want to do more for themselves at home
- 02
Young people getting ready to live on their own
- 03
Anyone who wants to manage money, shopping, cooking or travel better
A three-step rhythm
we live by.
Every engagement follows the same beat: understand you first, deliver next, then keep it honest as your goals evolve.
- 01
Understand
We pick one or two skills you want, and break each one into steps.
- 02
Learn together
We do it with you, in your own home or in the community. Practice, not lessons.
- 03
Hand it over
We do less and less until you are doing it on your own, then we pick the next skill.
- 01
Cooking, meal planning and food safety
- 02
Shopping, comparing prices and managing a weekly budget
- 03
Managing money, paying bills and keeping track of appointments
- 04
Using public transport and planning your week
- 05
Using a phone and computer safely, and staying organised at home
The things people
ask us.
-
How long does it take to learn a skill?
It depends on the skill and on you. Some take a few weeks. Some take a year. There is no rush and no test.
-
What if I try and it does not work?
Then we try a different way. Everyone learns differently, and finding your way is part of the job.
-
Can my family be involved?
Yes, if you want them to be. Sometimes it helps if everyone at home supports the skill the same way.
