Options for Independence – services for disabled people in Northern Scotland |
 |
| Options for Independence actively engages with disabled adults to provide immediate skilled support and opportunities so they can live more independently.
We provide a range of services for people between the ages of 16 and 64 who have physical disabilities and need support to improve their independence.
We work with individuals, their families and professionals to determine what kind of support is needed – for example, in social, recreational, educational, emotional or physical activities. These plans are regularly reviewed to meet changing circumstances.
By promoting independence, we provide cost-effective services that make a real difference to people’s lives.
