A mother and daughter duo have surpassed a decade since they established a respite home in Sheffield to support adults with learning disabilities.<\/span><\/p>\n

Jodie Broughton, 32, and Kim Broughton, 56, set up Seven Steps Support in 2011 after they had 17 and 30 years of experience in the care industry.<\/p>\n

Jodie said: \u201cWe have both got a real passion for care.<\/p>\n

“We had met lots of families over the years that were struggling to find someone they could trust and a provider that really had the people\u2019s best interests at heart where their loved ones were not just a number on a database.<\/p>\n

“Everybody had to have a cup of tea at the same time, everybody had to do the same activity, and it\u2019s really about breaking that mould.”<\/p>\n

The home enabled adults to build daily life skills that encouraged independent living.<\/p>\n

The adults created a sensory garden to grow their own vegetables and a sensory igloo was lit up at night for adults to have some quiet time.<\/p>\n

Adults attended day sessions every Thursday where they engaged in different activities such as gardening, baking and volunteering at food banks.<\/p>\n

Jodie said: \u201cThey are working really well and our clients absolutely love it. It is designed by them, for them, which is what all support should be.\u201d<\/p>\n

Many adults part of the home had lost their loved ones during the pandemic.<\/p>\n

This led to the creation of a sensory memorial garden where adults could plant a tree, lay flowers or share memories of people they have lost due to the virus.<\/p>\n

The respite home was struck by the pandemic not long after it launched in 2019 and this restricted access to a safe space for adults to rest and recuperate.<\/p>\n

Jodie\u00a0said: “Covid has been extremely difficult. Clients were hitting crisis points. They were not able to access the community and their routines were thrown completely.<\/p>\n

“For someone with autism, routines are a huge focus.\u201d<\/p>\n

At the end of last year there were 2,065 people with a learning disability or autism in hospitals in England, according to NHS figures.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Jodie’s grandfather suffered from dementia and Parkinson’s disease and required carers at one stage.<\/p>\n

Jodie said: “We understood how difficult it could be as a family letting people into your home to care for your loved ones.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat gave us the passion to set up and we know what should be expected.”<\/p>\n
