Maples support individuals to grow independence, purpose and belonging within our community.

Nurturing independence by supporting people within our community.

Maples help people grow stronger by taking the time and great care, to listen and respond with compassion.

independent belonging

The Wheel of Independence is a care and support framework for achieving independent belonging in the community. We facilitate collaboration, understanding and support people with tailored assistance to help people make smooth progress towards independent belonging in the community.

We foster an environment where individuals living with severe or multiple disadvantages can thrive and feel a sense of autonomy, inclusion, and connection within the community.

To serve the community with compassion and support individuals to make the right choices for their journey.

Maples understand that everyone needs support to grow, regardless of where they are on their journey towards independence and fulfilment.



Each small step forward is an achievement but we recognise that there are challenges on every path. We are there to provide support and guidance along the journey.

Working with people

Life is a journey, full of many choices. Maples help people choose their path.

We involve people in decision making by talking with them about individual choices on their journey. We empower people to make decisions for themselves by working with them to show them how they could look at things from a different persepective.
