Something very special took place on Friday. We teamed up with Curve Learning, who provide all our staff training, to offer a bespoke course for Residents and Tenants. There were three sessions. One on Safeguarding, one on Sexual Awareness, and one on Cyber Security.
Not only was it the first time that we'd offered this sort of training, but it was also the first time that Curve had taught such classes.
Mark, Tom and Elizabeth will be giving their personal accounts and there will be a lot more in the next couple of weeks.
There are three more sessions on the 19th.

Lisieux Trust’s Story

Lisieux Trust was established in 1984, with an initial aim of providing residential care for people with learning disabilities in Sutton Coldfield. One of the founding members discovered, through conversation with local people, that there was very little provision for people with learning disabilities within the Sutton Borough. A group of local volunteers came together who would go on to be the Board of Trustees for Lisieux Trust. Through vigorous fundraising efforts and support from local organisations, the Trustees decided to obtain registered charitable status in 1986. Upon acquiring this, they approached a local housing association for support.

The housing association purchased a derelict house, situated within Sutton Coldfield, and obtained a grant for refurbishment work. Local fundraising efforts were then called upon to fully furnish and equip the home.

In September 1986, Lisieux House opened its doors to six people with learning disabilities. In the beginning, the residents were supported by volunteers who lived in the property. Over the years, Lisieux House continuously looked for ways to improve the support they offered and started to employ professional, paid staff to provide support to the residents at Lisieux House.

Lisieux House proceeded to build itself a favourable reputation as a flagship for high quality provision of residential care for people with learning disabilities. On this foundation, the Trust flourished and was able to open a second residential home, known as Francis House, in 1994. Again, the housing association provided support for this, acquiring land in Boldmere and building a nine-bedroom house. Six people moved into Francis House, and staff were recruited to work at the home. Over the intervening years, the occupancy of Francis House has increased to nine.
