Independent Living Skills
Daily routines, cooking, household management and the practical confidence to maintain a home. Each young person works through a structured life-skills programme with their key worker.
Our Support Model

Every young person at Willoughby Place is supported across seven domains. Together they form the foundation of a successful transition into adulthood, and the basis of our outcomes framework.
