We support around 100 people across the North Aberdeen and Shire branch with a dedicated team of 250 support colleagues. Our services from Banff to Kingswells provide various levels and types of support, depending on individual need. We have three small care homes and a range of supported living and visiting support services. A number of our services are designed specifically to support people who have autism and a physical and/or learning disability.
We pride ourselves in being local and integrated within the communities of those who we support. We strive to deliver person-centered support and to meet the hopes and aspirations of those we have the privilege to assist.
The branch leader for North Aberdeen and Shire is Nicola Alexander.
