Learning Disabilities

At Totus Care, we are passionate about supporting individuals with learning disabilities to live full, active, and rewarding lives. We recognise that learning disabilities vary widely — from mild to more complex needs — and that each person’s experience is unique. Our approach is grounded in respect, empowerment, and a belief that everyone deserves the opportunity to participate in their community, pursue their interests, and make meaningful choices about their life.

Our personalised support plans are designed to build on each individual’s strengths and aspirations. We work alongside the people we support to help them develop essential life skills such as cooking, cleaning, personal care, and managing money. These skills form the foundation for greater independence and allow individuals to gain confidence in their ability to live more autonomously. Whether support is needed at home or out in the community, our team is there to guide, encourage, and celebrate progress.

We also provide practical help with navigating everyday tasks, including attending medical appointments, engaging in further education or employment, and participating in social and recreational activities. Our staff support individuals in building healthy relationships and developing communication skills that enhance both confidence and personal safety. We take a proactive approach to problem-solving and goal setting, always tailored to the person’s pace and preferences.

Communication is at the heart of everything we do. We understand the importance of ensuring that every individual is truly heard and involved in their own care. That’s why our staff are trained in a variety of communication strategies — including Makaton, visual aids, and other accessible tools — to support understanding and expression. We also support access to advocacy services to make sure individuals’ rights and choices are fully respected.

Totus Care is committed to creating inclusive environments where people with learning disabilities are supported not just to live, but to thrive. Whether someone is looking to build skills, find new opportunities, or gain more independence, we offer flexible, compassionate care that evolves as their needs and goals change. Every person has potential — and we are here to help them realise it, one step at a time.
