Bethphage is a registered charity (No. 1046225) which was established in 1994 and provides support to adults with disabilities or mental health needs in the Welsh Borders and West Midlands. We currently support people in Birmingham, Shropshire, Telford, Walsall and Wolverhampton.
Our services include registered care homes, supported living services, day opportunities, outreach support and a specialist assessment and transition service. Most of the people we support have a learning disability. Everything we do is individually designed to enable people to achieve their potential and meet their objectives and need for support. The people we support may live in their own home, a home they share with one or two other people, their family home or a small shared care home. Support may range from a few hours a week to 24 hours a day every day.
We aspire to be a positive behaviour organisation. Using the concepts and values of positive behaviour support, we apply them to how we manage and lead our staff and to how staff behave with each other. We believe that, by becoming a PBO, we will make a significant difference to the quality of life of the people who use our services and make Bethphage an even better place to work.
We have a specialist in-house team providing professional expertise in positive behaviour support which augments the skills of our highly trained workforce. Our vision is of a society where people with disabilities have the same opportunities to develop and use their talents and skills as all other people. We deliver this by implementing our core values of personal growth, honesty, respect and active involvement.
Happy rainy Friday everyone🌧️, to cheer us up, cast your mind back to Thursday last week when it was gloriously sunny and a few Bethphage colleagues were limbering up for the annual Attingham Park (Two Mile) Relay Run organised by The Shropshire Shufflers. There was a tense build up of anticipation in the office with Team Finance having to defend their winning title. The competing teams this year consisted of Team A (Formally Finance) : Chris, Martin, Niamh and Team B (Formally Team HR): JP, Sue and Peter. Team B just pipped it to cross the line first after a Mo Farah- esque finish from Peter! Lovely weather to watch according to Sammy who was nursing her chess playing injury, may be a bit too warm to run! Well done everyone! It's the taking part not the winning that counts! #donttellRachelfinancelost #attinghamrelayrun #healthylifestyleshealthylives
Just 7 days to go until the highly anticipated Bethphage World Cup Sweepstake draw! There are 7 teams left to play for so hurry, join our sweepstake today by calling Sammy on 01743272880. Who thinks Harry Kane will be able to cope with the extra pressure that the England captaincy brings! #worldcup2018 #russia2018

We at MAGG Group Ltd have been partners with Bethphage, for over 3 years now and have always found the staff to be very dedicated, committed and most importantly they care about the people they look after, their homes are well managed and the management team are very proactive with regards to the needs of the people and homes they manage and from our point of view specifically with regards to health and fire safety

I work with many care providers and I would set aside Bethphage as an excellent company for it's mission, vision and it's approach to care, that is consistent from management through to individual support workers. They have an ethos of independence and crucially an understanding of the organisations role to achieve this, that is clearly evident in the people who work at Bethphage. Importantly this is visible in the personalities of the people they support, who are happy, calm and safe. I would recommend this organisation to others and look forward to working in partnership with them again.

- Staff treated people with compassion, kindness dignity and respect. We found the home had a culture where staff put people first and wanted them to be involved in what happened there. Relatives told us that staff were “marvellous” We saw that people were confident in the company of staff and looked comfortable and relaxed.
