A new supported housing project is creating jobs as well as changing lives in Alloa.
ECHO Supported Living Scotland Ltd has been named the support provider for five new homes in the town, designed for adults with learning disabilities and complex needs.
The homes, located on the Oaktree Gardens housing estate, were developed in partnership with Inclusion Housing and Seddon Property Services.
Marie Greenberry, director for operations and quality assurance at ECHO Supported Living Scotland, said: "What underpins Warbler Court is a highly responsive, person-centred support model, with skilled staff available 24 hours a day.
"Support is tailored around each person’s needs, strengths and aspirations, from developing independence in daily living to building relationships, accessing opportunities, and becoming active members of the community."
Ms Greenberry stated that the service would also bring employment opportunities to the area while contributing to the local economy, saying: "Looking ahead, we are committed to continuing to develop and strengthen our services across the Forth Valley region, building on this model to create more opportunities for people with learning disabilities and complex needs.
"Our focus is on growing in a way that never compromises on quality, remaining person-led, community-focused, and grounded in the belief that everyone has the right to live a meaningful and fulfilling life in a place they can truly call home."
Celia Peat, registered manager at ECHO Supported Living Scotland, said: "It’s about creating opportunities for people to live meaningful, fulfilling lives in their own homes, with the right support around them.
"It’s also really important to us that we are creating opportunities within the local community, building a team of skilled and compassionate staff who share our values and are committed to making a difference."
