Are you an older person looking after someone with a mental health challenge? It can be a very isolating experience, and it can increase the need for some TLC.. If this is you, come along to the "Come Together Day", for a supportive, fun and welcoming experience

✨ Welcome Back & Happy New Year! ✨

The first week back for 2026 is officially underway at Empowerment Support Services, and we’re so excited to be back supporting our participants, families, and community.

A new year brings fresh goals, new opportunities, and continued commitment to providing respectful, person-centred support that truly empowers the people we work alongside.

Thank you to everyone for your patience over the break and for the ongoing trust you place in our team.

We’re ready for another year of connection, growth, and making a positive difference—together.

Here’s to a strong and empowering 2026! 💙
