About us
Dimensions is a leading specialist care provider that today supports around 3,500 people with learning disabilities and autism across England and Wales. If you need to put a support package or contract in place locally we can help.
Why work with Dimensions as a support provider?
One of the largest providers in the country
Award winning person-centred support for cost effective results
Proven ability to provide support services of all sizes.
Experience in large contract fulfilment and tailored support packages for individuals
Leading provider in personalisation agenda.
We work with over 90 local authorities and Clinical Commissioning Groups across the country as well as providing services direct to families who have personal budgets.
How is our support innovative?
We’ve worked with local authorities across the country to develop new initiatives and pilot projects to meet a wide range of requirements.
A key blockage for many services and potential services can be finding suitable housing. We can help – for example, we've worked with Essex County Council to create an innovative Housing Broker role to support families and the local commissioners to find appropriate housing as the first step to putting together a cost-effective package.
How can we support your team?
We work closely with many Local Authorities to take the pressure off their services. Our expertise in setting up tailored services from scratch as well as taking over and transforming previously failing support services means we can work with you, whatever stage you’re at. Our experienced behaviour support team works with people who have complex needs and challenging behaviour to ensure successful transition from treatment and assessment centres.
If you've got any enquiries about making personalisation work locally and providing the right combination of support to your service users, please get in touch.
