What makes Small Supports different?

Small supports focus on personalised, sustainable support that puts you in charge, separates housing from support, and connects you with your local community.

  • Built around your aspirations and preferred way of living.
  • Stable, consistent teams recruited around you.
  • Support that stays with you through changes and challenges.

The 9 principles of Small Supports

Control & Commitment

You and those you choose have maximum autonomy from day one—and we grow that control over time.

Aspirations & Support

We start with your aspirations for where and how you want to live, then build support around that.

Personalised Recruitment

We recruit and develop your team around you—trained, reliable and person-centred.

Choice of Living Arrangements

You choose where and with whom you live. Housing and support are kept separate.

Sustainable Funding

Funding is tailored and sustainable to meet your specific needs.

Consistent Support

We stay with you through change—we don’t withdraw or “sell on” support.

Community Integration

Leadership and teams are embedded locally; we prioritise connection and participation.

Controlled Growth

We grow steadily (a few people per year) to remain personal and financially sound.

Practice-Oriented Development

We build our systems and learning around these principles in practice.
