Key Community Support

Key Community Supports are a Caring organisation who provide support to individuals who require additional support with day to day tasks. Whether supporting people in their own home, their family home or in their community, Key start by seeing the person first. They listen carefully to them to understand what they want from life and ensure they, and those closest to them, are at the heart of planning and making decisions about their support. The support they offer can range from just a few hours a week, a few hours a day, to 24-hour support, including overnights.
