Enabling Independence Through Meaningful Lives
In line with good practice for Adult Social Care, all services provided by Calm Futures enable the people we support to ‘live as independently as possible and to enjoy a good and meaningful life’.
We will use an enablement model including the ‘Meaningful Lives Matter’ approach with a clear focus on supporting daily living that is in no way shaped by what we can’t achieve but more importantly asking the question “what’s missing” that would enable me to reach my goals. We support this by:
- Having a keen emphasis on teaching new skills, enabling people to better communicate their individual needs and become more independent.
- By developing a person’s strengths, skills, knowledge, assets and aspirations alongside them using person-centred planning tools we can maximise both what an individual can do for themselves and what they can access from others to live a meaningful life.
- Support is linked to specific outcomes that are most relevant to the person, including their health employment, connection to their community, aspects of recovery and wellbeing and relationships.

What Families Say
About Us
We’re proud to support individuals and their loved ones with compassionate, expert care. But don’t just take our word for it – see what families and professionals have to say about their experience with our team.
Amazing Experience,
Superb Staff
Having worked in healthcare as a registered nurse in different settings I can honestly say that the support offered to people is excellent
Wonderful Experience,
Very Kind Staff
Cannot fault the service provided for my brother! Kind staff are always prepared to do their utmost to support people based on their individual needs
Amazing Experience, Superb Staff
Making the decision for my brother to move into supported living was incredibly difficult. After always living with our mother, in the same home his whole life, with the same routine, I was full of trepidation, guilt and worry about how he would respond to such a huge change away from everything he knew.
However, from the very beginning, the transition was completely seamless. All my fears were quickly put to rest. My brother is happier and mentally healthier than he has been in a long time. His needs are being met with kindness and professionalism, his social life is better than ever, and he is so much more active.
I have formed a great relationship with Mandy, who has my full trust and confidence. It has given our me peace of mind and I could not have wished for a better outcome.
