Our Story
1st Enable began it’s journey in 2013, when we opened our first service in Cheshire West. Building on the success and positive outcomes achieved there, we expanded our support into Cheshire East in 2018, followed by Middlesbrough in 2018 and Wakefield in 2019. Each new service has strengthened our mission to empower people to live fulfilling, independent lives within their communities.

We have continued to invest in the development of our Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) team, who play a vital role across all our services-particularly those delivering complex support. The PBS team works collaboratively with our staff to ensure proactive, person centred approaches that enhance quality of life and consistency of care.
Our Impact
At 1st Enable, our ongoing investment in people, both those we support and those who work with us, reflects our core beliefs that with the right support, everyone can achieve meaningful growth and fulfilment.
Our coaching and mentoring program (2024) provides our staff with the skills, confidence and understanding needed to support people in developing independence, building new skills and maintaining progress. This program has been especially valuable for those experiencing transitions from childrens to adult services.
