Our Mission Statement is simple: To enable anyone who requires personal care in order to live independently achieve their goal.

Our aim is to assist service-users with all aspects of independent living. This includes preparation for an assessment, providing annual cost of care, accessing funding sources e.g. the Independent Living Fund, assisting people to recruit and train their own staff and liaising with other services and professionals. Each support package is therefore designed to meet the individual needs of each service-user.Since 1988 many people have benefited from our support. To date, we have at some time worked with thousands of service users nationally, who are either living independently in the community or moving towards this goal.Penderels Trust also advises and supports a variety of other professionals to ensure they have the necessary skills and information to advise people on developing their own independent living skills. We also offer financial and administrative advice related to the running of independent living schemes, including an administration service of local authority monies and a computerised PAYE service.
