We are incredibly proud to share that our Director of Wellbeing and Strategy, Michael Fullerton, has been awarded the Chief Nurse Adult Social Care Gold Award—one of the highest honours in the sector. 

We are proud to announce that Cwm Hyfryd, our residential home in Blackwood, Wales, has achieved an ‘Excellent’ rating in three out of four areas, and a ‘Good’ in the remaining category following an inspection by the Care Inspectorate Wales.

We are incredibly proud to share that Samir El-Ziftawy—a deeply respected and inspirational member of the Achieve together and Campaign 4 Change communities—has been posthumously awarded The People’s Award at the National Learning Disability and Autism Awards 2025.

As part of Co-Production Week 2025, Achieve together has unveiled it’s Big Plan for Co-Production

Achieve together is proud to announce that Rogerstone House, our specialist residential care home located in Newport, South Wales, has achieved an overall ‘Excellent’ rating following a recent inspection by Care Inspectorate Wales (CIW). 

This is our favourite time of year – a week dedicated to celebrating and sharing the power of co-production in action. 

We’re thrilled to share that Mellieha, our residential care home in Wakefield, West Yorkshire, has achieved a ‘Good’ rating in all five areas following its latest Care Quality Commission (CQC) inspection! 

We’re proud to announce that Arundel House, our residential care home in Frinton-on-Sea, Essex, has been rated ‘Good’ in all five inspection areas following a full inspection by the Care Quality Commission (CQC) in May 2025. 

At yesterday’s PCPLD Network Conference, we are proud to honour the life and legacy of Samir El-Ziftawy — a passionate self-advocate, valued member of Campaign 4 Change, and much-loved individual within our community — who sadly passed away peacefully at home in September 2024.

Achieve together is pleased to share that Maldon House, a specialist residential care home in Seaford, East Sussex, has once again been rated ‘Good’ across all five key areas following its latest inspection by the Care Quality Commission (CQC) in March 2025. 

Two inspirational members of the Achieve together community and our advocacy group Campaign 4 Change, have been recognised as winners at the 2025 Leaders Awards, celebrating their dedication, creativity, and impact on the community.

It’s been one year since Zak Houlahan joined Achieve together as CEO, bringing fresh perspective, energy, and a commitment to putting homes and people supported at the heart of everything we do.

Seven outstanding people and teams from Achieve together have been shortlisted for national awards recognising inclusion, creativity, and advocacy. The ceremony takes place this July at the ICC Birmingham. Join us in celebrating the achievements of our incredible finalists in the National Learning Disabilities & Autism Awards 2025. Their commitment and impact are an inspiration to us all.

Co-production is a collaborative approach where people we support and team members work together as equals. It recognises the value of lived experience and actively involves people we support in shaping the support and services they receive.

At Achieve together, we support families through the transition from children’s services to adult support with clear guidance, tailored options and over 25 years of experience. Whether it’s supported living, residential care or outreach, we work closely with each person and their network to create a future built on purpose, independence and the right support.

Achieve together is a leading UK provider of personalised support for autistic people, those with learning disabilities, mental health needs, and complex conditions. With over 25 years of experience and more than 420 homes and services across England and Wales, we offer tailored support to help people live with confidence, independence and purpose.

We’re proud to celebrate a significant transformation at St Albans House, which has been rated ‘Good’ by the Care Quality Commission – just under two years after receiving an ‘Inadequate’ rating. It’s a rare and remarkable two-level improvement, reflecting the hard work and values of our team.

Northfield House, a residential support home for people with learning disabilities, autism and complex needs in Ringwood, has received a full ‘Good’ rating in its latest inspection by the Care Quality Commission (CQC). It’s the result of consistent care, strong leadership and a dedicated team.

At Achieve together, we believe that exceptional care is only possible when we invest in the people who provide it. Our purpose is clear: to support people to live happy, healthy, and meaningful lives. But that starts with building a workplace where our own team members feel valued, empowered, and able to thrive. 

We’re proud to sponsor this year’s Co-production Conference in Wales, where Campaign 4 Change will exhibit their ground-breaking advocacy, with support from Achieve together’s Unity group for inclusive co-production.

Vicky Smith is a true creative force whose journey is as vibrant as her artwork. Supported by the Brighton Community Outreach Team, Vicky is a cherished part of the community—not just through her art, but through the energy, humour, and kindness she brings wherever she goes.
