Support Differently
We believe every neuro disabled person should be able to get the support they need to live life their way.
But right now, too many people are missing out. Support often comes too late, is too limited in what it offers and doesn’t take enough account of someone’s whole life.
We’re determined to change that.
Support Differently is our 10-year strategy to make support available earlier, to more people and in ways that are built around what matters to each person.
What are we trying to do differently?
Support people earlier
People shouldn’t have to reach crisis point before getting help. We want to make it easier for people and families to access support when they need it, including at important moments of change in their lives.
Support a wider range of people
Too many neuro disabled people are unable to access the support they need, particularly those who don’t qualify for publicly funded services. We’re working to find new ways to reach people who are currently missing out.
Support people’s whole lives
People’s ambitions, relationships and needs change throughout their lives. Rather than expecting people to fit into existing services, we want to build more personal support around what matters to them.
Changing more than Minstead Trust
We know we can’t change things on our own.
Alongside changing how we work, we’ll share what we learn, influence decision-makers and work with others to improve the wider system of support for neuro disabled people.
Our ambition isn’t simply to make Minstead Trust better, it’s to help transform life for neuro disabled people everywhere.
