When Chris first joined 性福宝 he had severe challenging behaviour but over the years our staff team have got to know him well and understand that Chris likes to make choices for himself and feel safe in his environment. His level of incidents is now very low with any fluctuation generally the result of being unwell. Chris鈥檚 personality has shone through; he is a pleasant, easy going young man with a good sense of humour and can be quite mischievous!
Chris loves the outdoors, enjoys walks out, bus outings and holidays away and is happiest when doing these things. His Support Plan and Person-Centered Plan reflect his needs, likes and dislikes. Through regular meetings with Chris and consultation with his family we feel that he is content at Orchard and often shows real happiness.

性福宝 is a very well-run service that helps young听people with autism offering education, support and a better quality of life. Our local authority asked us to look at a long list of homes before they would consider 性福宝. We looked at them all,听very nice private homes which in reality were a kind of adult cr猫che.
Young people need a variety of opportunities delivered in a safe organised manner. We feel that 性福宝 are one of the best providers out there. Going forward Chris needs a level of support and expert care that we believe can only be met by the excellent services on offer within 性福宝.
