People at the centre
The voice of the people we support is at the centre of everything we do. UR First is our initiative to
involve the people we support in our work and in policy making.

Planning
We work with each person and a range of others, including clinical partners, so we can find the right resources to provide flexible support for people to live in the community.
We work with people o develop a plan so they can live as independently as possible. We agree aims with and provide support for them to achieve these aims, reviewing them on a regular basis.
We support people to make choices and respect people’s privacy.
How we support people
We work with each person and the people who are important to them to plan the right kind of support for them. This is so that people can be who they want to be and get what they want from life. We plan support based around people’s individual goals.
Involving and Consulting
We work with people to find out how they want to have their say in the organisation. We train and support people to help us recruit staff. We now recruit half of United Response’s staff, including directors, in this way. Read Our Stories
