INS has been working for over 30 years in Hounslow and Richmond to support adults living with neurological conditions, and their carers, to access long-term, professional and peer support in the community, helping them to manage symptoms, increase independence and live well with their condition. Our team of professional therapists (physiotherapy, occupational therapy and speech and language therapy), trained counsellors, therapy assistants, activity co-ordinators and volunteers) work in different locations, as well as online, to give our service users the skills, strategies and support to manage their condition and help them stay connected with their social and community networks. We can provide the affordable, ongoing neurological care and rehabilitation, which is not available on the NHS, to help people improve their condition or prevent it from deteriorating. Our multidisciplinary team provides holistic therapy, social and emotional support tailored to people’s individual rehabilitation needs and goals. Neurological conditions can be life-changing if they cause long-term disability and affect people’s ability to live independently. At INS, we assess the whole person before providing services and support to help with physical, cognitive and communication issues and improve people’s independence, confidence and social participation. We offer support for as long as needed, often over many years. Help and advice is also available for family carers, many of whom have health issues of their own.
