With support when it matters.

Cura’s supported living focuses on creating an environment for individuals to thrive. We provide safe, high-quality homes with tailored support, enabling independence, confidence, and a fulfilling daily life. Support is available when needed and steps back when not.

What is supported living?

Supported living is about having your own place to call home, with support that helps you live the life you want. At Cura, this means:

A home you can be proud of
Support that’s personal, not one-size-fits-all
Freedom to make your own choices
A focus on growing independence over time

Your space, your pace, your future: with a team alongside you when it matters.

How Cura supported living is different

Rule your realm: High-quality homes

All our homes are high-quality, spacious, and modern self-contained flats, not shared bedrooms or communal living spaces. Individual flats give people privacy, dignity, and control over their own environment.

Find your flow: Support built around you

We don’t fit people into a mould. We shape support around each individual. We work with you to identify daily routines, preferences and long-term goals – everything starts with what works best for you, with support tailored to fit.

Always in your corner

Professional support with a family feel. Our structure means approachable management, less bureaucracy and more human connection. A stable staff team brings friendly, familiar faces and more consistent support. This friendly ethos is balanced with strong governance, specialist training and professional accountability.

Who we support (and how!)

We support people with a wide range of needs, including learning disabilities, autism, mental health needs, complex and multiple diagnoses and forensic step-down support.

Some people live largely independently with light-touch support, while others need more specialist or intensive input. Our role is to meet people where they are and support them in moving forward at their own pace.

At Cura, our support changes as you do. It isn’t fixed or static. Our care plans are live documents that are reviewed, refined, and shaped by progress and changing needs. As people gain skills, confidence and independence, their support plans evolve with them.

We adapt around the individual, not the other way round.

I am happy at Autus Court; my flat is nice, I have my own space to relax and listen to my music when I’m bored. The staff are nice, they always listen to me, especially when I’m upset. Staff always accompany me to appointments and make sure I don’t miss important ones. I won’t go back to my previous accommodation. At Autus Court, I feel safe.

Independence isn’t just about achieving those big life moments; it builds through everyday experiences. We celebrate the small wins as much as the significant milestones.

We support people to:

Learn daily living skills
Manage their own space
Build routines that work for them
Make healthy, safe lifestyle choices
Take part in activities they enjoy
Grow confidence socially and emotionally
Accessing education or work
Accessing other services
Manage finances

Whether you are cooking your first meal, making new friends, or simply feeling settled in your own home, these moments matter. We celebrate them all.

Our approach

The people we support, families and advocates

All support is planned in partnership with the people we support. We know that people with lived experience, or their families and carers, will have valuable insights about the type of support that will make a positive difference to their lives.

PBS Experts

PBS is central to our support. It helps us improve quality of life by understanding what behaviour is communicating and shaping support in a way that respects each person’s choices and helps them thrive. Learn more about how we work.

Multidisciplinary teams

In addition to our core team, we have worked hard to build positive links with community-based multidisciplinary teams (MDTs), ensuring the right mix of health and care professionals come together to plan and coordinate people’s care. Learn more about how we work.

Local authorities

Working closely with local authorities helps ensure support is joined-up and responsive. Working together, we can adapt support as needs change, safeguard wellbeing, and focus on long-term solutions. We strive to turn referrals around within 48 hours.
