Experience, Compassion and Respect
DiRich Community Support is a small, family-run service run by a team of two. Our approach is shaped by over 20 years of individual hands-on experience supporting adults with learning disabilities and autism, as well as older people aged 65 and over. We understand the importance of kindness, patience, dignity and person-centred support.
We believe everyone deserves to feel safe, valued, respected and listened to, regardless of their abilities, background or circumstances. Our approach is guided by compassion, safeguarding, independence, personal choice and respect for human rights.
We are committed to providing caring, responsive and well-organised companionship and community support, tailored to each person’s individual needs and wishes.
At DiRich, your voice matters, your choices are respected, and your wellbeing is at the heart of everything we do.
