F2Thrive
EMPOWERMENT VILLAGE
Every family dreams of a space where their loved ones not only survive but truly thrive. At F2Thrive, we understand the unique challenges faced by families of children with profound disabilities. Our mission isn’t just about offering care—it’s about redefining what care means. We bridge the gap between the heart-wrenching decisions families often face and the world of opportunities that every individual, regardless of their abilities, truly deserves.
Every heart yearns for a place to belong, be understood, and truly thrive.
Driven by a united heart, we, a tribe of parents, are fueled by an unwavering passion: to champion the dreams and rights of our profoundly disabled children. Through the tapestry of years, we’ve woven lessons from the luminaries in care and special education. Now, we’re on the cusp of revolutionising what care looks like, crafting state-of-the-art sanctuaries tailored to the evolving needs of Local Authorities and the NHS.
Our Vision
In a world where choices are stark and solutions scarce, F2Thrive sprang from the collective dreams of parents who dared to envision a brighter, more inclusive future. Every family wishes for a space where their loved ones not only survive but genuinely thrive, irrespective of their abilities or challenges. This wasn’t just about care; it was about redefining the very essence of it.
Our journey began with personal stories. From late-night discussions between concerned parents to heartfelt dialogues with community members, we unearthed a common sentiment—a longing for a compassionate, sustainable solution. We realised that families with profoundly disabled members often grappled with heart-wrenching decisions that no family should ever face alone.
The challenges were manifold: from the inherent struggles of ensuring optimal care to battling societal stigmas and confronting the inadequacies of conventional residential care systems. We witnessed the silent pain of parents torn between their wish to provide the best for their child and the limitations of the options available. We felt the void left by the absence of a community that truly understood and supported these unique needs.
Enter F2Thrive—a beacon of hope and a manifestation of our shared aspirations. Our vision is bold and uncompromising: to create a harmonious ecosystem where everyone, regardless of disability, has opportunities to flourish, learn, and engage. At F2Thrive, we aren’t just building homes but crafting communities. In communities where families stay together, laughter and joy are the daily norm, and everyone has the freedom to thrive.
From the verdant expanses of Glebe Village to our future projects, F2Thrive represents more than just infrastructure—it epitomises a movement. A movement towards inclusivity, understanding, and, above all, unwavering love.
Join us as we turn this vision into a living reality, and together, let’s redefine what it truly means to thrive.

Why we need F2Thrive
The transition into adulthood is challenging for many, but for families of individuals with disabilities, it is often accompanied by a heightened sense of dread and uncertainty. As these young adults age out of children’s services, a vast majority are catapulted into an abyss of inadequate provisions and support. In the UK, while approximately 1.5 million people have a learning disability, only a fraction receive the needed help from the local authorities, revealing a distressing gap in the care system. The lack of funding exacerbates the situation, forcing families to grapple with dwindling resources and limited options, many of which are ill-suited to the unique needs of their loved ones.
This systemic inadequacy is a matter of insufficient facilities and a stark lack of understanding and empathy towards these families. Miscommunication and misinformation between families and local authorities further strain relationships, leaving caregivers isolated.
Essential services, which should be the bedrock of support, are woefully scarce. Furthermore, mental health support, a crucial element for individuals with disabilities and their families, remains an elusive luxury for many. This state of affairs not only diminishes the quality of life for these individuals but casts a long shadow over the lives of their families, perpetuating cycles of stress, isolation, and despair.
