Day Services

Our approach to education, training and learning for our students and service users is completely tailored to their individual needs and aspirations. At HS4L we deliver both accredited and non-accredited courses. Learning may be delivered in a number of locations and either on a one to one basis or in small groups.


Below are some of the areas that students and service users can follow:

  • Maintaining independence and living independently
  • Developing new skills and interests
  • Participating more in community life
  • Transitioning into adulthood
  • Developing skills and competencies that support the journey to employment

Day services

HS4L skill - centre courses are designed to be fun and engaging and aim to help develop independence skills and contribute towards a fulfilled life. A full list of what's on offer is available in our prospectus.

Students can attend for full or half days up to five days a week and choose from a variety of courses.

  • Creative Crafts
  • Food & Catering
  • Music Courses
  • Allotment Group
  • Computer Skills
  • Health & Well-being
  • Friday Fun & Friendship
  • Out & About
  • Skills for Independence
  • Gym & Fitness sessions

We sometimes have the flexibility to run additional courses at our day centre and in the wider community. If there is something you would like HS4L to run that isn't in our current prospectus, please contact us to see how we can best meet your needs.

HS4L is an accredited learning provider. Learners will be informed of any opportunities to work towards a qualification during their studies.

If you’re interested in joining any of HS4L sessions but you’re not sure, why not come and meet some of the staff and have a look around before making a decision.
