Barnardo’s Transition and Inclusion Service (TIS) supports young people aged 16-21 with a learning disability, autism and/or physical disability in the Southern Health and Social Care Trust (SHSCT) area of Northern Ireland as they transition into adult services.
Over 12 weekly sessions the service aims to:
Provide 1:1 support & home visits focusing on life skills, advice, mentoring and improving access to services
Group work opportunities and social outings
Capacity build the young person’s parent/carer or significant adult in their life, to increase their awareness of services and confidence in supporting that young person to access them
Create opportunities for young people to engage in consultations and with services to ensure that their needs are reflected in the planning and delivery of services in the future.
