Mission: Help people with learning challenges reach their full potential, letting them be the person they can be.
What: Provide resources and skills required for people to achieve things they never thought possible. We aim to do what our name says, we aim for Improving Life Outcomes.
How:
- Provide communication systems for those who struggle to communicate
- Aide accessible education for all by providing resources, skills and training
- Provide resources to help with behaviour management
- Provide fun activities to teach and strengthen skills
Our philosophy is about achieving through setting goals. Life goals to aim for and dream about. Medium term goals working towards specific achievements. Short term goals to work on now, taking one step at a time.
We don’t offer specific therapies. However, we do offer resources, training, advice and activity/skill classes to teach skills and help individuals with learning challenges achieve goals, ultimately letting them reach their full potential. We have a flexible “thinking outside the box” approach.
We are a social enterprise with a non-profit philosophy and values.
