ACRT aims to enhance the health, independence and well being of adults living in the community with a neurological or physical disability.
ACRT works with clients to identify rehabilitation goals and offer tailor made programmes. Clients are seen in the most appropriate place for them e.g. at home, place of work or study.
Although intervention is not time limited, we will work with clients for around six sessions and review goals to determine progress, further intervention and future plans.

> helping people to access community services such as leisure centres and voluntary organizations
> helping people make choices about their disability and coming to terms with the impact of their disability
> preventing admission to hospital
> helping clients function to improve following hospital admission
