At Thistle, we believe that life is for living. We always go the extra mile to help people with disabilities or long-term health conditions lead great lives where they are in control. We are a boundary-pushing organisation helping bring about a society where everyone has the right to feel involved and empowered to live the life they choose.

We believe that each person is the authority on their own life. Our services are person-centred and tailored to the individual. Our Supported Living service allows us to work with people in their own homes, giving them the support that they need and want. Our Health and Wellbeing work includes our groundbreaking Lifestyle Management Programme as well as our Gym, Café, Garden and Complementary Therapies.

People come to Thistle for a variety of reasons, but one thing is consistent: our commitment and dedication to each individual we support. We understand people’s needs better. We listen and learn. This is what makes us stand out. This is what makes us pioneers.

With your support, we can continue to develop our innovative, person-centred services that focus on choice and control. Your help is greatly appreciated!
