Supporting people with learning disabilities to live with more independence and choice across the north east region, including Newcastle, North Tyneside and Northumberland.
Our person-centred approach supports people to take control of their lives. We work closely with the people we support, their families and carers, and health professionals to deliver services that are personalised to individual needs. Our support workers empower the people we support to make their own choices about how they live, using our innovative Fusion model of support to keep people at the centre of everything we do.
At Hft Newcastle we support people with many different types of learning disability, and have particular experience in supporting people with Prader Willi Syndrome, autism, Williams Syndrome and people with complex needs and/or challenging behaviour.
Our emphasis is on creatively supporting people to live with greater levels of independence and personal fulfilment, to achieve the best possible outcomes.
Day Opportunities
Ponderosa Day Opportunities is a choice-led service based near the centre of Morpeth.
At Ponderosa House we offer a variety of choice-led activities, provided by a dedicated team, designed to maximise life choices. We provide life skill opportunities including cookery, multi-media art-based activities, pottery, and gardening sessions based at our allotment.
Our sessions are designed to improve mental and physical health through community involvement by means of walking groups and photography and relaxation through the arts and sport.
