Our Vision

Adults with neurological conditions and their carers can access long-term, professional and peer support in the community, helping to manage symptoms, increase independence and live well with their condition.

Our Mission

We provide holistic therapy, social and emotional support tailored to the rehabilitation needs of adults with neurological conditions and their carers, empowering them to maximise their abilities and live life to the full

Our Values

Professional

At INS, our workplace strategy is to build a range of skilled staff and volunteers to meet the changing needs of service users. Our multidisciplinary team includes professional therapists covering neuro physiotherapy, occupational therapy and speech and language therapy as well as qualified counsellors. All professional staff are registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) or the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).

Inclusive

Services are co-designed with our services users and delivered using a multi-disciplinary approach, providing a truly integrated service which looks at people’s physical, emotional, and social wellbeing. We offer a hybrid and satellite model to increase access to INS support.

Collaborative 

To increase our impact, we work with universities and colleges to deliver training and placement opportunities to future health and care professionals. We continually seek to enhance our service by developing partnerships with voluntary and statutory organisations. We aim to collaborate with partners to bring the widest range of opportunities and expertise to the INS community.

Caring

At INS, staff and volunteers work to create a safe, supportive and inclusive environment for all our service users, both adults with neurological conditions and their carers, whatever their ability. Our aim is to promote a caring, friendly and accessible space where people feel comfortable to have therapy and socialise.

Empowering

We want everyone in the INS community to feel appreciated, supported and motivated, empowering them to value their abilities and achieve their goals.

“I think everyone who needs this service would benefit from the support of INS.”
