“Blyth Star helped me realise I did not have to live in hospital for the rest of my life. I now work and have friends and support in the community.”
What is Blyth Star Enterprises?
Blyth Star Enterprises was established by a group of parents, carers and professionals who came together with the aim of improving the lives of people in the region with learning disabilities and/or enduring mental health issues, through a unique combination of social care services – Support, Training, Accommodation and Rehabilitation – and it’s this combination that puts the STAR in our name.
What does Blyth Star offer?
We provide a range of living support services which provide pathways to independent living.
We offer a range of social activities in order to combat loneliness and isolation, giving individuals a sense of belonging and allowing them to feel part of a community.
We provide sheltered work and training, including IT, horticulture and woodwork across a number of specialised sites.
We also provide a community gardening service for local elderly residents.
How are we regulated?
As a care provider we’re regulated by Northumberland County Council and as a registered charity by the Charity Commission (Charity No: 519443).
