Person-Centred Approach

At Handcrafted, we place individuals at the heart of everything we do. Our person-centred approach ensures that each resident's unique needs, preferences, and aspirations are at the forefront of their support journey. We believe in recognising and respecting the inherent dignity of every person, tailoring our services to create a supportive environment that truly values and celebrates individuality.

Trauma-Informed Care

Understanding the impact of trauma is essential to our approach. Our trauma-informed care recognises the potential histories of adversity that our residents may carry. We aim to create a safe, empathetic, and non-judgmental space that acknowledges and responds to trauma, fostering healing and resilience.

Strengths-Based Perspective

Every individual possesses strengths, talents, and capabilities. Our strengths-based perspective seeks to uncover and amplify these inherent qualities, empowering residents to harness their potential and build a foundation for personal growth and self-sufficiency.

Appropriate Risk Taking and Harm Reduction

We understand that growth often involves taking risks. Our approach to risk-taking emphasises informed decision-making and harm reduction. We encourage appropriate risk-taking that supports residents in exploring new opportunities while minimising potential harm, enabling them to navigate their path to independence with confidence.

Solution-Focused Approach

Our solution-focused methodology directs our efforts toward identifying practical and actionable solutions. We collaborate with residents to overcome challenges and barriers, working together to create a positive and constructive path forward.
