What SIL Looks Like (Illustrated Style)
• A warm, welcoming home environment
Bright, accessible living spaces that encourage comfort, privacy, and a sense of belonging.
• Support workers offering gentle guidance
Trained staff assisting with cooking, cleaning, personal care, medication, and day-to-day routines — always with respect and encouragement.
• Shared living with friendly housemates
Opportunities to form friendships, share activities, and enjoy a positive community atmosphere.
• Life skills in action
Participants learning to cook simple meals, manage their rooms, do laundry, or plan their week — supported at their own pace.
• Community engagement moments
Trips to local shops, outings, hobbies, and social participation that help build confidence and independence.
• A person-centred support plan
Every resident receives support that matches their goals, abilities, and lifestyle preferences.
