We are a growing Shared Lives Scheme building an innovative service across Dudley and Wolverhampton

28/10/2026

Shared Lives is a unique service that matches adults who need support with approved Shared Lives Carers who open up their homes, family life, and communities. Unlike traditional care services, Shared Lives is built on relationships, independence, and belonging.

Whether it's short breaks, day support, or long-term arrangements, Shared Lives helps people live fulfilling lives, build confidence, make friendships, and be part of their local community while receiving the support they need.

Follow our page to learn more about Shared Lives, meet our amazing carers, hear success stories, and keep up to date with events, activities, and opportunities across Dudley and Wolverhampton.

🩺 Health Matters

Being on a GP Learning Disability Register can help people access additional support when using healthcare services, including appointments, information and reasonable adjustments.

If someone you support finds accessing healthcare challenging, it may be worth speaking with their GP practice about what support is available.

Small changes can make a big difference.

Shared Lives can provide continuity, stability and lasting relationships beyond the age of 18, helping young people build confidence, independence and a sense of belonging.

💙 Shared Lives in Action

Recently, one of the people we support enjoyed a successful short respite stay with a Shared Lives family while their regular carer took a well-earned break.

Following careful planning and matching, the arrangement provided a safe, welcoming and supportive home environment, helping the individual maintain their routine, independence and confidence throughout their stay.

The experience was a fantastic success, with everyone involved sharing positive feedback. The individual settled in quickly, enjoyed being part of family life, and felt comfortable and supported from the very beginning.

Our Shared Lives carers described the experience as a pleasure and would be delighted to provide support again in the future.

Stories like this highlight the true value of Shared Lives: thoughtful matching, caring households, and creating opportunities for people to feel welcomed, respected and part of a community💙
