Celebrating 25 years of supporting people with a learning disability to live the life they choose.
Thera Group supports people with a learning disability across England, Scotland, and Wales. We support people at home, in the local community and for short breaks, giving people real choice and control about how they live their lives. We also offer specialist support in financial advocacy, housing, circles of support, employment, befriending and training. Since 1998, our vision has been to show that people with a learning disability can be leaders in society. We demonstrate this through the employment of people with a lived experience in director positions across the organisation, to ensure everything we do is focused on the needs of people with a learning disability.
