Cosgrove » Summary

Cosgrove currently supports around 120 children and adults with an age range of 3 to 83 years. Cosgrove Care provides services to a wide range of users usually on a contracted basis with various Local Authority Social Work Departments.

Services have also been developed via the “Supporting People” fund where partnerships are now established with local authorities to provide A Registered Housing Support Service in line with the Care Commissions National Care Standards for Housing Support Services.

This has dramatically increased Cosgrove Care’s ability to deliver quality support to a wide range of service users and their families.

As a charity with a history of providing Culturally Sensitive Services, Cosgrove encourages and provides a culturally diverse way of Life for all its service users by honouring Customs, practices and faiths particular to individual’s expressed religious/spiritual/cultural wishes.

As a charity, Cosgrove will never turn anyone in need away, and will always ensure that it responds in some way to that call for help.

Although Cosgrove was initially established as a provision for the Jewish community, it now supports around 40% of people from out with the Jewish community. This move into the wider community has helped cement good relations with the local authorities and partner organisations and has allowed Cosgrove to increase its expertise within the disability arena.
