Jennie is a young lady who commissions supported living services from Independent Options. She is also a freelance artist and is working on a new not for profit community enterprise, Jennie’s Art.

Jennie’s Art will see the Stockport-based artist create bespoke pieces of art, including cards, mugs, and many other items as a way of sharing her love of art. Any money made will contribute to creating more products, as well as supporting Jennie’s favourite local charities.

With delicious cakes and refreshments, as well as an exhibition of Jennie’s work, the launch party will be held on Sunday 15th May from 2-4 pm at Stockport Advocacy (48 Middle Hillgate, Stockport SK1 3DL).

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.”
