Hft is a national charity providing services for people with learning disabilities. We believe that people with learning disabilities should be able to live within their communities with all the choice and support they need to live the best lives possible. We do this by putting people at the centre of everything we do. We work collaboratively with them to provide services that are creative, innovative and sustainable.

Our specialist teams use their skills and expertise to deliver services to people including those with the most complex of needs.

We are passionate about what we do, and use our unique understanding of the challenges facing the people we support to speak up with them to bring about positive change.

Hft entered into a partnership with Flintshire county council at the end of 2017, to deliver and develop Day and Work opportunities for adults with a learning disability.
