*Bringing U.K. news to EURWEB is to highlight amongst other things, what black citizens in the U.K. are achieving or have achieved. Good community deeds must be recognized So, what an incredible day it was at Clear Horizon‘s Open Day in London U.K.
It was an event that turned out successful in the presence of the Mayor of Harrow, Councilor Ramji Chauhan who joined the directors of Clear Horizon in making it a memorable occasion. All day people were visiting the refurbished building meant to care for people in the community who have challenges.
Clear Horizon is a modern and well-presented newly fitted house that provides supported living service and personal care to adults aged 18+ with severe/moderate learning disabilities including those on the Autism spectrum. The mayor’s presence gave extra support albeit with his busy schedule. He graciously cut the ribbon, symbolizing the official commencement of Clear Horizon’s journey. He also spent time after cutting the ribbon, to show his excitement of such an initiative in the community. He supports two charities close to his heart and includes Centrepoint and Dementia U.K.
Clear Horizon offers a unique service that encourages integration and participation into the community. Services are flexible with the aim of achieving personal independence as possible in all activities of daily living including the day-to-day running of the apartments. Highly individualized care plans, activity programs, and person-centered plans are in place to nurture such independence and to aspire to their personal goals. Highly trained staff are available 24 hours per day to facilitate this process. Clear Horizon is a unit that aims to allow individuals to progress in a positive environment, whilst receiving care and support.
Says Director Toyin Salami of Clear Horizon, “It was an overwhelming sense of pride and accomplishment for all that the Clear Horizon team has achieved “. It is so true as together, they have transformed an ambitious vision into reality, and this marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter to bring value of quality living for their service users.
