We deliver innovative, flexible and responsive care that achieves excellent outcomes for our people and communities.

Get to know us

Active Prospects is a charitable organisation enabling over 300 people with learning disabilities, physical and mental health needs, and autistic people each year to live full and aspiring lives.

We employ 450 staff across residential, supported living and services that enables employment across the South-East. Recently, we won the Employer of the Year (Not for Profit) category at the National Learning Disability and Autism Awards 2024 and were also recognised on the NatWest Pioneers Post SE100, the index of the UK’s 100 top-performing social enterprises.

  • We are leaders in creating bespoke homes and support to enable people with complex needs to leave institutional settings.
  • We are also specialists in facilitating people-led co-production, and working with partner organisations to address health inequalities.

In 2023 we were rated as the top large care employer in the UK in the Great Places to Work survey – based on the feedback of our own staff, benchmarked against other employers across the country. We were also highlighted for our approaches to employee wellbeing, and to supporting women in the workplace.
