Glasgow Stoneside Family Support

Stoneside short breaks is a short-term residential service for people with a variety of learning difficulties and challenging behaviours. Located in the southside of Glasgow, our six-bed bungalow boasts an extensive rear garden with play equipment and front communal space.

We also provide long-term residential care for young people with disabilities.

We employ a robust referral and induction process to ensure the needs of the young person can be met by our service. Each young person is allocated a keyworker, and we implement a person-centred care plan.

We provide support in the following areas:

• Building resilience and developing helpful coping strategies
• Introducing new foods to restricted diets
• Helped families plan bedtime routines.
• Integrating children into their communities.
• Building confidence and self-esteem
• Growing independence
• Improving their emotional and physical wellbeing
• Accessing and engaging with external support services
