Outreach and Support

Previously called our Daycare Service, Outreach and Support offers people living with HIV and Hepatitis C support in their own homes and communities.

The aim is to help people keep their links in the community and minimise hospital or residential admissions. The service enables individuals to live independently in the community through personally designed care packages.

Support is provided in a variety of ways such as accompanying service users on hospital visits or involving them in group activities.  A range of activities is offered including arts, cookery, swimming and gardening.

Often the support focuses on re-engaging people with their local community after a long period of illness through socially based activities such as cinema visits or bowling.
