The Frances Taylor Foundation is a modern, diverse and dynamic provider of social care and support.

We work mainly for people with learning disabilities, and also older people. We challenge people to strive for greater independence, and for richer interaction with the people and the world around them. We support people with a wide range of support and care needs, including some people with complex needs arising from a range of disabilities and health conditions, including mental health issues.

Our vision is that people lead life to the full, with their dignity respected, independence supported, and uniqueness valued.

We believe that each person must be at the centre of their world, and of the support and care they may require to lead life to the full in their own way.

We currently work in three parts of the UK: Greater London, Liverpool and Merseyside, and Brighton and Hove. Services offered include: supported living, care homes, day activities and nursing care (for older people). We support around 300 people, and employ around 390 staff (whole time equivalent).

We are a successful not-for-profit enterprise, rooted in the long history and values of an international women’s Catholic Congregation, the Poor Servants of the Mother of God, now a registered charity. We celebrate difference, and we work for, and employ, people of any faith or none.

We are committed to being a great employer, and to developing and training our staff. We believe that everyone has gifts they may use for the benefit of others. Many staff roles are physically or emotionally demanding, but we aim to ensure that our staff have the space and opportunity to offer something of themselves to the people they support.
