We provide life choices for people with learning disabilities.
You can choose to help us improve them.
Options for Life is a dynamic not-for-profit charity based in Sandwell. We are dedicated to empowering adults with learning disabilities and/or autism to boost their confidence, develop valuable skills, and live independently, enjoying the same rights and opportunities as everyone else.
We are committed to supporting our participants in making choices about their own lives.
We provide our services in an area of significant deprivation; the Indices of Multiple Deprivation (2019) ranked Sandwell as the 12th most deprived local authority in England. We own two purpose-built centres and employ 65 staff.
We want to support more people with profound or multiple learning disabilities and to develop new services to provide supported employment opportunities. But to do this we need professionals who can guide and develop the charity’s strategy as Trustees. Many of our current Trustees will complete their terms this year. We particularly value financial and public administration skills and people with lived experience of disability. We believe in the strength of a varied board and welcome applicants from all walks of life, regardless of their previous Trustee experience.
Our Trustees are central to our success, and we need Trustees who share our desire to overcome years of prejudice. The financial situation is challenging, but the rewards are enormous.
Please make a choice to learn more about us.
Our mission is to provide high quality andcoordinated services to all participants which is responsive, flexible and sensitive to their changing needs
