Families
MacIntyre was established by the parents of a disabled child in 1966 for all people with a learning disability to live a life that makes sense to them.
Our Approach
Great Interactions are at the heart of everything we do at MacIntyre; it’s part of our DNA and it’s embedded in our approach.
We use person centred approaches to keep the people we support safe, happy and healthy and to ensure each individual is able to live a life that makes sense to them.
Using Positive Behaviour Support strategies ensures we see the person first, not their behaviour or learning disability, and we involve both the people we support and their families in all aspects of the learning, support and care we provide.
