SCIL

Welcome to Stockport Centre For Independent Living

Stockport CIL is a part of Disability Stockport dedicated to providing support to those who wish to live independently.

SCIL has many services designed for engaging people with their community and to support those who may struggle to retain parts of their independence if support was not in place.

Adult Peer Support Group (APS Group)

Would you like to:-

• meet and make new friends?
• share your experiences with others?
• chat about issues and problems affecting you?

Then come to the Adult Peer Support (APS) Group on the 3rd Monday of each month from 6.30pm - 8.30pm at Disability Stockport. There’s tea, coffee (and biscuits) and an opportunity to chat about issues or problems relating to day to day living.

We aim to:-

• promote friendship.
• share knowledge.
• pool resources.
• support each other.

Sometimes we have guest speakers (suggested by members) who promote question and answer sessions, and we have social events which have included a barbeque, a quiz night, and a ‘take away’ evening.

Some recent guests have been:-

• Emma B from Adult Social Care’s Equipment, Adaptations and Sensory Loss team.
• Emma N from Etihad Airways.
• John from Cheshire Personal Trainers.
• Helena from Welfare Rights who discussed the new Personal Independence Payments.
• Julie from Disability Stockport who talked about Personal Budgets.

Please contact us or send us an email if you would like to know more.
