Honeycomb Group joins Derbyshire partnership to help people live at home independently for longer
Our home support provider, Revival, has joined a new Derbyshire service, with experienced and specialist partners coming together to deliver home support.
The Low-Level Support service, which launched on April 1, sees Revival join forces with Citizens Advice Mid Mercia and South Derbyshire CVS. The service will work to empower local residents to live safely and independently in their own homes for as long as possible.
The service takes a unique partnership approach, enabling more extensive support to be delivered to a wider community of people across the county. Specialist professionals work with adults who are facing barriers that prevent them from living independently, with support provided to address issues, provide advice, improve confidence and reconnect with support networks.
For Revival, the new service follows their highly successful Independent Living Service, which supported over 1,500 people, aged between 29-100, over the last five years. The service was a lifeline for local residents, as well as easing pressure on NHS services. Support was also delivered through a falls recovery service, which helped people back on their feet after a fall.
