Young Adult Support
Helping young adults build confidence, independence and a life they enjoy
What is Young Adult Support?
We provide one to one support for adults aged 18 and over who may be living with autism, ADHD, learning disabilities, physical disabilities, acquired brain injuries or other additional needs.
Every support plan is tailored to the individual. For some people, that might mean developing confidence using public transport or learning to cook independently. For others, it could be enjoying hobbies together, or developing new skills.
Our aim isn't to do things for people. It's to support them to do as much as possible for themselves while providing reassurance, encouragement and practical help along the way.
Why Choose Young Adult Support?
This service is designed around one simple principle: everyone deserves the opportunity to live a full, meaningful and independent life. Choosing Thrive Homecare means choosing support that sees the whole person, not just a diagnosis.
We take time to understand interests, ambitions, strengths and aspirations, creating support that helps people build confidence and enjoy greater independence.
Our team focuses on genuine relationships because trust is the foundation of good support. By providing consistent Health & Wellbeing Associates, we help people feel comfortable, understood and able to thrive.
Rather than simply completing tasks, we look for opportunities to develop skills, increase confidence and create meaningful experiences that improve quality of life.

"Julie always knows how to make me laugh. She is helpful, kind and caring, and we go to different places together. I always feel better after we've spent time together, and having her support has made such a difference to my life."
Anne (Client)
"I never imagined companionship could be this good. Claire has been absolutely marvellous and I couldn't wish for a better person to support me. Thanks to her, I've been able to get out, visit new places and enjoy things I wouldn't have done on my own."
Barbara (Client)
"What has made the biggest difference to me is having someone to talk to, who listens to me and understands me, and shares my interests."
Cally (Client)

Thelma (Client)
"Incredible service - a company that truly cares about their customers. Agota (from Thrive) always responds quickly to any queries and is so empathetic with clients, going above and beyond every time. She really takes time to get to know people and explore their individual needs and interests. Her comprehensive knowledge of the care system is invaluable. I would not hesitate to recommend her."
Claire (Referring Solicitor)
"I couldn’t speak more highly of Georgina from Thrive. She is just great, she's always the same, enthusiastic and caring, always very helpful. I couldn't ask for anybody more caring, kind and professional."
Joy (Wife of client)
“I am very happy with the services that the girls from Thrive Homecare are providing for me.”
Andrea (Client)
"My mother has recently started receiving support from Thrive Home Care, and our experience has been extremely positive. Mum is 95 and living with dementia. She lives alone and has always been fiercely independent, with little awareness of her need for support. From the first meeting, Emma built a natural rapport with Mum, which was incredibly reassuring. Emma currently visits once a week, with plans to increase support over time."
Barry (Son of client)
“From the moment I met my consultant, Agota, I felt very at ease and comfortable. She explained everything clearly and helped me understand how Thrive could support me. My companion helps me with shopping trips and attending medical appointments. I would highly recommend this service to anyone in a similar situation to mine.”
Adriana (Client)

"You came along and took me on adventures I never even dreamed of."
