Did you know that PSR's (Periodic Service Reviews) are amazing at supporting positive behaviour change. PSR's are focussed on the behaviours of team members, NOT people supported. PSR's increase continuity, so people get great, consistent support no matter who supports them.

Nature can boost mood—even a few minutes outside each day helps. We have beautiful outdoor areas for people we support across our services to access, and spend time in nature. #NatureForWellbeing #FircroftTrust

What are you doing this weekend? Is it a restful one, recharging after a long week - or a busy one, seeing friends, exercising, or taking a day trip? By doing things that are most meaningful to us as individuals, help us thrive. #Wellbeing #FircroftTrust

Community is important. At Fircroft, we promote wellbeing and social connection through shared meals, chats, check ins, and building friendships - and not always living life through social media. For more info about our services go to - thefircrofttrust.org/how-we-help/ou… #FircroftTrust

Mondays don’t have to be tough. Sunlight, music, or gentle movement are easy mood‑boosters. By integrating these into our daily morning routines can boost how we feel and have long lasting impact throughout the day. #EmotionalWellbeing #FircroftTrust

One of the biggest misconceptions in PBS is that focus should be on the individuals supported. One of the most effective strategies is focussing on the support team behaviour, + working to increase consistency of support. The more consistent, the higher the success likelihood.

Many people believe that autism is a learning disability. It is not. ASC is a huge spectrum, + no two people are the same. By supporting people in ways that are meaningful to them, based on aspirations, strengths + preferences - is how we work with every person in our services.

A short gratitude practice—jotting down one thankful note daily—can enhance positivity. Small steps can lead to huge positive impact. #Wellbeing #EmotionalSupport

We use "Active Support" to help people learn every day skills, and enhance independence as much as possible, as part of our PBS (Positive Behaviour Support) approach. Supporting people to enhance every day skills, means people can have even more choice + control in their lives.

Micro-habits = big wins over time ✅ Drink water when you wake up ✅ Stretch/do breathing exercises (many can be found online) ✅ Make a list of things to do for the day/week (the brain loves ticking off tasks) Simple steps support healthy minds. #EmotionalHealth #FircroftTrust

The environments we live in are VERY important. People we support have choice + control over how they live + their environment, + we use matching to support better outcomes. For info about our supported living, or residential care services, contact [email protected]

Plastic free July... We want to make the whole year plastic free. This is why the Fircroft Trust is one of the very few charities or organisations to have fully offset our carbon footprint. We are verified as totally carbon neutral!

Becoming carbon neutral, is a core part of our strategy. We also have many other areas of focus, like ensuring the people who access our service get the very best services and support, and how work to make that a reality. Read more about it here - thefircrofttrust.org/wp-content/upl…
