New home for young people with complex needs is the key to independent living

Young people with complex needs are able to leave home and live independently for the first time thanks to a new service by Lifeways in Manchester.
Expert teams from Lifeways, the UK’s biggest team of professionals providing support for adults in the community, are supporting up to six residents - aged 17-30 - at the shared house in Trafford.
The service enables new residents to leave their family homes for the first time and live more independently than ever before.
The Trafford service is a partnership between Lifeways, Trafford Council, which commissioned the service, and Golden Lane Housing, one of the country’s leading supported housing landlords for people with learning disabilities and autistic people.
Liam, 22, has been living at the service for a couple of months and is already feeling the benefit of having 24/7 support and his own front door.
“Living here has given me a new start in life,” he said. “It’s given me stability and, even though I have an amazing family, being here has helped me realise that now my life makes sense. It’s given me a new start and a purpose.”
Liam has battled with mental health challenges, addiction and is neurodivergent but feels he is now supported by teams of people who understand him.
“(The service manager) Melonie is a fantastic soul. She doesn’t feel like a worker. She’s a genuine person who you can talk to and have a laugh with. She doesn’t approach it as work, she approaches it as a kind soul who is here to help.”
He now has his sights set on pursuing his dream to become a working actor and eventually a family. Liam said: “I’d like to be a working actor. That’s my goal and dream and I’d love to have a partner and family and a career. This is the best place to start.
“The people here are kind and understanding and don’t judge previous parts of your life. I haven’t always experienced that. Here, there’s no judgement, just understanding.
“I really feel like I have a future ahead of me now. As a person who has disabilities, I have never felt truly independent but now I do. I’m now in a position to build a life.”
James Denison, Regional Director for Supported Living (North West) at Lifeways, said: “Leaving the family home is a big step, and for people with complex needs it is an even bigger adventure, one in which we feel privileged to play a role.
“What we have in Trafford is an incredible home for six amazing young people who, with our expert support, will learn the skills they need to live a more fulfilling and independent life.”


Lifeways won the contract to provide this vital new service from Trafford Council and has been busy working with Golden Lane Housing to get the property ready.
“As the UK’s biggest care and support provider, Lifeways is also very pleased to be working in partnership with Trafford Council and Golden Lane Housing on a service which will genuinely enhance lives,” James added.
Cllr Jane Slater, Executive Member for Health and Independent Lives at Trafford Council, said: “We’re proud to be involved in this exciting project that will make such a difference for young people at a key point in their lives.”
Emily Collinson, Head of Development and Growth at Golden Lane Housing, said: “Our mission is to help people with a learning disability or autistic people to find and enjoy a suitable, safe home. We aim for our tenants to live in an environment which will support them to live as independently as possible.
“It has been fantastic to work with Trafford Council and Lifeways to bring this scheme to life and to welcome our new tenants. We wish them all the very best in their new home, and look forward to seeing how they get on fulfilling their goals in the future.”

Trafford Council’s mighty school caterers serve up 13,343 Christmas dinners at 66 primary schools



Trafford Council’s school kitchen heroes are having their busiest few days of the year, preparing huge numbers of Christmas dinners for the children of our borough.



The Council’s inhouse school catering service is the third largest outside of London and will serve up 900kg of turkey, alongside vegetarian and halal options.



Hungry pupils will also wolf down over three tonnes of carrot batons, five tonnes of peeled potatoes, 1.75 tonnes of sprouts and 200kg of stuffing, before moving on to pudding.



Mass catering is a serious operation in Trafford, employing 297 permanent employees supported by 69 casual staff rustling up as many as 15,000 meals every school day.



Among those dedicated ranks are 48 cooks, 196 catering assistants and 63 supervisors working 6,545 hours per week. Many are long servers with 20 years or more history within the service.



Alongside 66 primary schools, Council caterers serve lunches at six high schools in Trafford. Quantities of food required include six tonnes of baked beans per annum!



Children consume 30% of their calories at school and catered meals are significantly more nutritious than an average packed lunch.



Cook supervisor Christine Fitzpatrick and cook Sinder Kaur have worked together at St Theresa’s RC Primary School in Stretford for nine years.



Christmas dinner is a highlight of the year, with a Quorn fillet option for non-meat eaters alongside turkey, chipolatas, roast and mashed potatoes, stuffing, peas, carrots, sprouts and gravy.



A helping of sprouts is optional – many children don’t like them! - and the main course is followed by strawberry and vanilla Christmas ice cream.



Christine said: “It’s great to see the children so giddy in their Christmas jumpers and party hats, really enjoying their food. We’re a small school so I know every child’s name and what they like to eat.”



On an ordinary school day, the most popular foods at St Theresa’s are curries, home-made sausage rolls, spaghetti bolognaise and jacket potatoes.



Cllr Stephen Adshead, Catering Portfolio Lead at Trafford Council, said: “Our school caterers work so hard all year round to bring delicious, nutritious food to all our children.



“Then, as workers in many jobs start to wind down for Christmas, they have their biggest challenge of the year – a slap-up and memorable festive lunch for all! We thank them for their skill and dedication.”



Cllr Karina Carter, Executive Member for Children and Young People, said: “It’s so important for children to receive healthy and nutritious school meals and the excitement of this special occasion in the school calendar is great to see.”

Students craft creative outdoor play equipment for local primary school

18.12.24

Students from Trafford and Stockport College Group have brought imaginative outdoor play equipment to life for Barton Clough Primary School in Stretford.

Responding to a request from the school’s PTA, Laura Lindley, Lead Technician, led an innovative project with the help of students enrolled on the E3 Certificate in Vocational Studies (Multi Skills).

The team, under the guidance of Plumbing tutor Iain Henderson and Learning Facilitator Nathaniel Edmonds, transformed recycled plumbing parts and wooden pallets into unique creations for the school’s outdoor area.

The project, which ran on Fridays, saw eight students work together to design and craft water play equipment - and even a musical instrument!

Using recycled materials, the group not only honed their practical skills but also demonstrated the power of teamwork and sustainability.

When the finished pieces were delivered to the school, the PTA’s Katrina shared her delight: “The pallets are absolutely amazing. The kids give them a big thumbs up.”

The success of this project highlights the potential of vocational training to positively impact the community.

Laura Lindley expressed her pride in the students’ efforts: “This project showcases the creativity and dedication of our students while emphasizing the importance of reusing materials in inventive ways.”

A massive congratulations goes out to all involved. Their hard work has made a tangible difference, providing children with fun, engaging, and eco-friendly play opportunities.

Trafford Council urges more people to become Shared Lives Carers for adults with support needs

Trafford Council is calling on local people to think about becoming a self-employed Shared Lives Carer as an alternative to a more conventional job.



The work involves sharing your home and your life with one or more adults with disabilities or other vulnerabilities, and earn up to £679 per week, with generous tax allowances.



Previous care experience is not necessary – having “room in your home and space in your heart” is the important criteria – though applicants go through a rigorous approval process and receive full training at no cost.



The borough currently supports more than 20 adults in this way, in households managed by social enterprise PossAbilities, but the Council would like to appoint more. Shared Lives Carers can support people on a long-term basis or provide ad hoc respite or day support.



A carer can support up to three people in their own home at any one time and many have another job too, as most supported adults go out and about during daytime hours, for example to work or volunteering, or to a day centre.



There is no upper age limit and carers can look after their own loved ones simultaneously.



Dawn and Ian Wermeling, of Stretford, have been Shares Lives Carers for five years, supporting three adults. Ian said: “It’s a great work life balance. We have a lovely home and we’re able to share our lives and get paid for it.”



Helen and Richard Barraclough, of Urmston, are celebrating 23 years as Shared Lives Carers. They live in Urmston and care for three adults. Helen says: “It’s a fabulous lifestyle. We do everything from home, which is nice, and we have all sorts going on. It is a great way of living.”



Claire Morphet, family-based support manager at PossAbilities said: “Having worked in adult social care for 38 years, I’ve seen many forms of support. I believe Shared Lives is by far the greatest option as it’s truly person-centred, with people carefully matched to the right household.”



Cllr Jane Slater, Trafford Council’s Executive Member for Healthy and Independent Lives, said: “Becoming a Shared Lives Carer is a great opportunity for the right candidates. This work is rewarding and meaningful as well as offering freedom and flexibility.



“Shared Lives Carers really make a positive difference for people. The right placement can be life changing. We would love for more people to consider this lifestyle and find out more about it.”

Read more about our Shared Lives Carers



Dawn and Ian Wermeling



Dawn and Ian Wermeling have been Shared Lives Carers in Trafford for five years now. The couple share their seven-bedroom home in Stretford with Pauline, 65, and Brenda, 59, who both have learning disabilities.



They also care for John, 59, for 48 nights of the year, when he is on respite from his father’s home. They also support other adults, when their usual carers are taking time out.



Dawn and Ian both worked with adults with learning disabilities, and as and foster carers for children before becoming Shared Lives Carers. They describe the lifestyle as the opposite of a nine to five job.



Ian explains: “Pauline and Brenda go to daycare so the hours of about 9am to 4pm are our own. We can have other jobs if we want – I also do some Personal Assistant work in the community. It’s a great work life balance. We have a lovely home and we’re able to share our lives and get paid for it.”



Pauline says: “I like it here. I like everything.” John adds: “I like doing anything we do, really.”



Dawn says: “We’re busy in the evening and at weekend, going places and doing things together. At home we watch films, play games and do puzzles and quizzes.



“We have nice dinners around the table in the evening and we have two sitting rooms, so that people can do different things. We all live together as a family. It’s a great concept, it really suits us all.”



Trips out in the family seven-seater ‘bus’, named Daisy by Pauline, include going to country parks, the theatre, cycling groups, local restaurants, shopping, discos and to see live music. Recently the family went to see an Abba tribute band.



Under the Shared Lives scheme, Dawn and Ian are entitled to 28 nights’ respite each year, as their annual holidays away from caring duties.



Helen and Richard Barraclough



Helen and Richard Barraclough are celebrating 23 years as shared lives carers. They live in Urmston with Richard, Michael and Kelroy, who have learning disabilities. Kelory was the first to join the household 23 years ago. Michael followed 18 years ago and Richard five years ago.

Helen says: “It’s a fabulous lifestyle, it’s not like going to a more ordinary job. We do everything from home, which is nice, and we have all sorts going on. It is a great way of living.”



Helen used to be a taxi driver in Salford, taking customers with learning disabilities around the city. Richard is a retired teacher who was in charge of teaching foundation lifeskills at North Trafford College. Through his work he met other people who cared for people in their own homes and the couple decided to give it a try.



Richard, Michael and Kelroy keep busy at day centres and clubs and Richard goes out and about independently on buses to see family and friends.



Helen and Richard are careful to provide as much choice as possible for each of the men they care for. Sometimes they do things separately and sometimes they all go out together for meals and trips out.



Past holidays together have included cruises. They are now planning a visit to the Normandy beaches after Richard first showed an interest in going to France, and a holiday in Jamaica to explore Kelroy’s heritage.



Richard says: “The real difference for our service users is the continuity of care we can give. It’s not like working with different people on a rota. Lockdown for us was a good time – we could take our time over things, drawing and baking and writing letters. We wouldn’t want to do any other kind of job.”[email protected] or call 01706 626747.

TRAFFORD MV SLEIGHED AT BROUGHTON PARK

Trafford MV approached their last game prior to Christmas on the back of 2 good wins against Glossop and Didsbury Toc H - however a number of changes were forced on the team in the build up which proved costly - there was no gifts under the tree for TMV.

The opening 15 minutes were well contested by both teams in good dry conditions and it was eventually the home side making the first impression with a couple of missed tackles allowing Park to cross in the left corner. The missed conv gave a 5-0 lead. Trafford worked their way into the home half and some good handling allowed Jordan Rigg to score wide right, again a missed conversion kept the score at 5-5. Park responded immediately to touch down the the left corner again, with a missed conv the score was 10-5. Good driving play brought Trafford level again when Kieran Edgar was on the end of a series of forward drives to power over from close range again levelling scores at 10-10 with half time approaching. With seconds left in the first period of play Broughton Park won a scrum close to the MV line which lead to a crucial score which took the home side into the break ahead at 15-10.

The opening 5 minutes of the second half were even more crucial as the home side ran in 2 quick tries, both converted to open a convincing gap 29-10. A penalty came soon after 32-10. From a scrum in the MV half the wing defence goes missing and Park attack down the wing touching down in the wide left corner, plus conversion 39-10. Both sides collect yellow cards as frustrations boil over leading to a scuffle. With 15 min to go Trafford winger Joe Owens picks up a loose ball and backs himself to race in under the posts from his own '22 line. Pat Eccles converts to make it 39-17. With darkness descending and the floodlights now on Trafford graced the home side a final converted try gifting them a 46-17 final score.

Player of the match for Trafford was Joe Walls who worked hard the whole game and carried the ball into the fray on many occasions. Kallum Doohan made his 1st XV debut. The result leaves Trafford 8th in the league a break now until Jan 4th 2025 when New Brighton come to MacPherson Park in Sale. New Brighton won by a single point 39-38 back in Sept so if Trafford MV can get a full strength team out they can approach the game with confidence.

The Club wishes all its supporters a very Merry Christmas and hopes to see many new supporters on the touchline and in the Clubhouse in 2025.

Army veteran Richard, 93, is Remembrance ready after help from Trafford Council social worker



One-time army cook Richard Dodd will be paying his respects on Remembrance Sunday at the age of 93, wearing his official veteran’s badge for the first time.



He received the lapel badge from the Ministry of Defence just in time for the big day thanks to Trafford Council social work apprentice Laura Titterington, who wrote to the Government on his behalf.



Laura has been working with Richard for a few weeks, to help him to continue to live well at home in Sale, organising a daily carer and other support for him.



Now with the help of the Council’s Armed Forces team, she is trying to track down a service medal for Richard that by rights he should have received on discharge in the 1950s.



He says: “I liked the army, it was something different. I didn’t expect to get anything when I was discharged. We shook hands and I went off home. But I’ve since found out I was entitled to an award in recognition of my service.”



On working with Laura, he says: “She has a lovely personality, she is always smiling. She organises things for me and makes my day better. I will never forget her.”



Richard, who was brought up in Hulme, trained to be a commis chef at Manchester’s Midland Hotel as a teenager. He completed National Service at Aldershot before stints in Salisbury Plain and Nottingham as a Private with the Royal Army Pay Corps and the Royal Artillery.



He became popular as an army cook, serving hundreds of troops at a time – using his chef training to teach fellow kitchen staff superior skills such as how to fillet fish properly.



Richard, whose wife Joyce passed away in 1998, worked at High Voltage Switch Gear Ltd at Trafford Park for 35 years after he was a full-time soldier – though he also served five years in the Territorial Army part-time during the early part of his employment.



His nieces Samantha and Alison have also tried over the years to get Richard his medal. They will be accompanying Richard to the Remembrance Sunday service at St Peter’s Square in Manchester city centre, where he will wear his badge with pride.



Trafford Council is a holder of a gold-standard Armed Forces Covenant, which recognises strong support for the Armed Forces community in the borough.



Cllr Jane Slater, Trafford Council’s Executive Member for Healthy and Independent Lives, said: “I’m delighted that Laura and the Council have been able to help Richard in this way. We work with hundreds of residents who need us, including our veterans, to improve lives every day.”

Trafford Council launches new portal to help match personal assistants with people with care needs



Prospective care and support workers, and people needing their help, can now find each other easily in Trafford – thanks to a new web portal.



Trafford Council has set up Trafford PA Web to allow people who would like to work as personal assistants to create a profile and look for employment with those who require support, either out and about, or around the house.



The move is part of Trafford Council’s ambitions to offer people with care needs as much choice as possible. This can include receiving Direct Payments to cover the care required, becoming an employer, and choosing who to hire.



Personal assistants don’t need any special qualifications and the work is often very flexible – and close to home. PAs can choose how many hours they want to do, and for how many people.



Staff from the council’s Adults and Wellbeing Directorate are now busy promoting the web portal at job clubs and job fairs, and in communities. They are also keen to introduce the idea of becoming a PA to people who might suit and enjoy it.



The system can be life-changing for employers and personal assistants alike. Pauline Delglyn, of Old Trafford, who is registered blind, employs Tiarra Morrison for eight hours per week to help with laundry, cleaning, meal preparation and other tasks.



Pauline, a former psychiatric nurse turned community radio presenter, says: “Whatever I need, Tiarra is there to help. I feel privileged to have her in my corner. She helps me with shopping and reads my mail for me. She helps me to order things online and choose my outfits.”



Tiarra, who has worked in childcare and elderly care, said: “It’s great working with just one person. I get to know exactly how Pauline likes things. I don’t have to try to remember. I really recommend this type of work.”



Rupy Kaur, of Sale, has cerebral palsy and employs a team of personal assistants around the clock to help her live her life and work as a registered health psychologist.



She says: “My PAs assist with all my personal care needs. They are truly like family. For anyone considering employing your own PAs, I encourage you to take that step. It has transformed my life.”



Julie Edwards, one of Rupy’s PAs, says: “It’s very rewarding work, enabling Rupy to live her life. It’s so much more than caring, and we don’t call ourselves carers. I worked in the corporate world, in sales and marketing, but I wanted to do something different, to fit in with family life.



“When I turned up for my first shift with Rupy I had no idea what to expect. It’s been so much more than I imagined. There are nine of us and we work as a team to cover all Rupy’s requirements and needs.”



Cllr Jane Slater, Trafford Council’s Executive Member for Healthy and Independent Lives, said: “We want to make sure our residents with care needs have the best possible opportunities and day to day experiences.



“That often means having a carer by their side, whether it’s going to the places they love and want to visit, or getting the help that means they can carry on living independently in their own homes.



“We’re delighted to launch Trafford PA Web and we’re spreading the word to encourage people to create a profile, take a look around and learn more about this exciting career option.”



The role is hugely varied and can range from providing personal care or administering medicine to accompanying employers to social activities or supporting them at their place of work.



Some employers might ask for a visit once a week whereas others may need support for several hours, every day, or even around the clock.



Personal assistants report a high level of job satisfaction, working with people the develop a good connection with and making a difference for them. Depending on taxes, the take-home pay is about £12 per hour.



Employers sometimes enlist the help of family members or others in becoming an employer and looking for people to work with them.

Whether you are a potential employer or personal assistant, find out more and register at Trafford PA Web.



Pauline Delglyn and Tiarra Morrison



Pauline Delglyn, 63, of Old Trafford, employs Tiarra Morrison, 29, for eight hours a week, helping with whatever tasks are needed such as cleaning, meal preparation, shopping and going out and about in the community.



Pauline, who was born and brought up in Moss Side, is registered blind and leads a full life including playing keyboards and saxophone, teaching English as a second language, IT and Braille.



A former psychiatric nurse, she is a trained counsellor, active member of several community groups and also hosts a radio show about health, wellbeing and local matters on local radio on Sunday mornings.



Pauline says: “I am well supported. I ask for help when I need it and the whole community looks out for me. I feel privileged to have Tiarra, or TT as I call her, in my corner. She keeps me company, making sure I have my medication ready to take and reading my mail for me.”



Tiarra, a mother of two, also runs a seafood restaurant with her sister. Tiarra’s mother is good friends with Pauline. She said: “Being a personal assistant fits really well with other commitments in life and it’s really nice to be able to support Pauline, or Sister P as I call her, to do all the things she wants to do.”



The support works both ways, too – Pauline has been able to advise and support Tiarra on business and life matters, using her counselling and coaching skills. In all, the pair are a great match – and look forward to continuing to work together.



Rupy Kaur and Julie Edwards



Dr Rupy Kaur and her team of PAs including Julie Edwards are a great illustration about the all-round benefits of the PA Web system.



Rupy, 37, is a registered health psychologist who lives in Sale. Born with cerebral palsy, she relies on a powered wheelchair every day. For over 20 years, Rupy has employed personal assistants (PAs) through the Trafford Direct Payments scheme.



Rupy says: “My PAs have been instrumental in helping me to live the life I choose. They provide assistance with all my personal care needs, but they are so much more than just caregivers – they are my partners and friends, truly like family.



“Their professionalism and kindness empower me to pursue my passions and embrace every opportunity. If you’re considering employing your own PAs, I encourage you to take that step. It has transformed my life, and I can’t imagine navigating this journey without them.”



Julie Edwards, 51, is a PA to Rupy. As well as attending to care needs, Julie co-ordinates a team of nine PAs plus additional staff who can be called upon in emergencies. Julie says: “I had a career in sales and marketing and I just wanted to do something different to fit around family life.



“I had no idea what to expect when I turned up for my first shift with Rupy but I’ve found the work very rewarding, making such a difference, and we have become very close. We work around the clock as we just don’t know when Rupy might need us. We consider ourselves as family.”

Civic services of Remembrance, parades and wreath layings will be held across the borough of Trafford on Sunday 10 November.
