Cornerstone Community Care is a large charity and a provider of services for adults and children with learning disabilities.
Founder Nick Baxter formed Cornerstone in 1980 when he brought together a group of parents and professionals who were concerned about the lack and quality of services available to people with learning disabilities and their families.
They wanted to provide community based support for people with special needs and Cornerstone's aim became 'to enable people who require our support to enjoy a valued life'.
Cornerstone opened its first residential service in 1982.
They support people with a variety of needs, including:
- people with learning disabilities
- people with physical disabilities
- people with autism and related disorders
- people with head injuries
- people with a terminal illness
- children with special needs
- older people
- people with dementia
