Social Support

Social support is the emotional, practical, and psychological help we receive from others, including friends, family, and the wider community. It plays a vital role in improving mental health, reducing stress, and helping people cope with challenges. Strong social support networks can boost confidence, promote a sense of belonging, and improve overall well-being, making it an essential part of a healthy, resilient society.

You First Support Services delivers personalised social support for adults with learning disabilities, autism, and mental health needs across Somerset and surrounding areas. Our support is flexible—ranging from occasional help to 24/7 care—and always shaped by the individual’s goals, preferences, and lifestyle.

We help people build confidence, develop life skills, stay connected with their communities, and maintain meaningful relationships. Whether it’s support with daily routines, accessing local activities, or building independence, we work alongside each person to ensure they are the architect of their own support.

Our approach is rooted in dignity, inclusion, and empowerment—because everyone deserves to live a life they choose.
