Midlands New support hub will aim to set kids with additional needs up for their adult lives A new £250,000 [$312,000] support centre for children and young adults with additional needs has launched in the Black Country. The Resource Centre has opened in Wolverhampton after Progress Care, which provides specialist social care services invested the six-figure sum into creating the centre to support vulnerable young people. The new facility will aim set visitors up for the future by helping them learn new skills for daily living, gain employment or simply develop new hobbies and friendships, while also receiving vital support and gaining access to the latest therapies. The Resource Centre, which has taken shape over the last 12 months, features a fully equipped kitchen, sensory room, computer and quiet rooms and an open plan space to host group activities….
"The Resource Centre will provide a hub for local children and young adults to come together and access skills and support that will help them live the most rewarding lives possible.” …
Bosses at the company, which employs 220 people, say they are committed to preventing family breakdowns by increasing resilience and reducing dependency, by blending a range of community-based services designed to support semi-independent and independent living.
Mr Crabtree said: “The organisation has created a range of services which will be delivered and co-ordinated from this new facility.
"It will provide early intervention, learning and education, preventative support, and solutions to avoid or reduce crisis situations that come at a high cost to all involved. I wish Progress every success in its latest venture.”
