Have you got a head for heights? On Saturday 9th September we are holding our first ever indoor climbing challenge at Rope Race Climbing Centre.

Participants will be able to climb the equivalent height of Manchester’s Beetham Tower in the comfort of the indoor climbing centre. Children are more than welcome to take part in the event but the minimum age restriction is 6 years old.

Beetham Tower is one of the UK’s highest buildings at an amazing 551ft/168m and 47 floors high. Once registered you
will be required to raise a minimum of £100 sponsorship which will include your registration fee for the event. This means that essentially you will get to climb for free!

The climbing challenge is another exciting event to mark Independent Options’ 40th anniversary, and a superb opportunity to push yourself to the limit while raising much-needed funds to help us continue the work we do for the next 40 years!

To get involved, or for more information, get in touch! Email us at fundraising@independentoptions.org.uk or call 0161 456 6502

Jennie's Story

Jennie is a young lady who, along with her circle of support, commissions Supported Living services from Independent Options to assist her living independently in her own home.

Jennie and her circle of support (a group of family, friends and professionals who work together to make decisions on Jennie’s behalf with her best interests in mind) are always involved in all aspects of her support and are at the heart of every decision, including the recruitment and selection of each team member, from the advert being placed right up to interviews and on-going development.

There are regular person-centred reviews to monitor what is working and what is not working, ensure outcomes are being achieved and plan together for Jennie’s future.

“My daughter lives independently through her individual budget. Her staff team are brilliant and we couldn’t be happier with everything.”
