About Affinity Supporting People (East)
Affinity Supporting People (East Lancashire) works with people across Accrington and the surrounding area in their own homes. Our starting point is what somebody wants their life to look like, and then the practical question of what support would make that possible. We support older people who need help with daily tasks, adults with a learning disability and autistic adults, people managing mental health conditions, people living with a physical disability and people with sight or hearing loss. We also support younger adults, who often want support that helps them get on with work, study or a social life rather than support that simply keeps them safe at home. A great deal of what we do is about independence rather than dependence. Where somebody can take on more for themselves, we would rather spend the time helping them get there than doing it for them because it is quicker. We also keep the same workers with the same people wherever we can. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. We treat that as the standard to maintain rather than a badge to display.
