Our Journey
Our Story: A Journey of Resilience and Purpose
Edan Support was founded by someone who has truly been on both sides of the care journey. Years ago, our founder's life took an unexpected turn after a devastating road traffic accident, which left them with catastrophic injuries. What followed was a long, often challenging journey through rehabilitation, a journey marked by resilience, hope, and the drive to rebuild.
As a former service user, our founder knows firsthand the struggles and victories that come with finding the right support. Having encountered gaps in care provision, and after years of searching for the ideal support worker, he finally found the one who didn’t just meet his needs but profoundly understood them. This individual’s care was transformative, offering more than just assistance; they became a steadfast source of encouragement, compassion, and empowerment.
There was a time when regaining health felt like an impossible feat, a distant dream that seemed just out of reach. Yet, with the right support, determination, and an unyielding will to persevere, our founder reclaimed what had once seemed lost. Now, having navigated the complex path from service user to care provider, he’s committed to making a difference in the lives of others facing their own challenges.
At Edan Support, we believe in empowering others to live fulfilling lives, no matter the obstacles. Our mission is to provide the level of care and understanding that every individual deserves, rooted in personal experience and genuine empathy. We’re here to ensure that no one feels alone or unsupported, helping our clients find strength, independence, and joy every step of the way.
