Your Direction Ltd
Supporting independence through holidays

We specialise in providing amazing supported holidays for adults with learning disabilities and additional support needs throughout the UK, Europe and worldwide. 
We support and encourage in all aspects of individuals personal requirements, enabling our customers to live an enjoyable and fulfilled life. We do this by working with the individual and all concerned parties, listening to all. We then develop a personal package that will aim to enable the client to achieve their personal goals in life. We will review their goals and needs regularly to ensure if any personal changes or requirements are met and acted upon.

Why did Your Direction start?

Your Direction Ltd came about due to our personal experiences looking after relatives and friends and our belief that everybody with a disability or learning disability has the right to achieve their goals, live a full quality life and direct their personal requirements. Seeing our family members and friends being pressed into other people’s agendas, timetables and off the shelf care plans, we decided with our family members and friends to take ownership of their needs respecting their wishes, their personal desires and how they wanted to live their lives. After we reached this decision our family never looked back, and our family and friends being supported enjoyed a full and active life that met their personalised needs.
