High quality services for adults and children with learning disabilities.

Learning disability services have always been an integral part of what we do here at Burton Street. Our ethos is to embrace the things people can do, rather than focusing on what they can’t. All sessions are designed to help develop self-esteem, self-confidence and self-awareness. We explore new sensory activities, encourage discussion and expression of feelings and thoughts, and enable people to reach their own personal goals.

Our staff are among the most experienced, innovative and professional support workers in the industry. Every member of our team receives regular, high quality training, and we have a culture of constant progression and professional development. We work hard to ensure everyone at Burton Street is motivated and able to provide the highest quality disability services.

We have a fully equipped accessible site in Hillsborough, Sheffield. Our organisation is run on a not-for-profit basis, and we have been established this way for 20 years. Between 200-250 clients from across Sheffield attend Burton Street on a weekly basis.

What's so good about hydrotherapy?

Written by Stuart on Thursday, 29 March 2018. Posted in Disability Blog

As you may have seen by now, we're currently trying to raise funds to build a hydrotherapy suite. It's been something our clients, their families and carers have asked of us for many years. We understand and believe in the value of hydrotherapy, and it's something we've always wanted to be able to offer. However, Burton Street is a not-for-profit social enterprise, and we run on very tight margins. We don't have any big pots of money tucked away. This means the cost of building a hydrotherapy suite has always been out of our reach.
