Hansel Foundation

About Hansel

Hansel assists people with additional support needs, and their families, to make the most of life each and every day by providing a wide range of services and activities.

Our approach is to deliver the right support for an individual to feel empowered, to find their voice, and experience equality, choice, dignity and respect.

Our aim is to give each individual we support the freedom to be heard, freedom of choice and the freedom to live.

What we offer

Since our origins in 1963 Hansel has been focused on breaking down barriers faced by people with additional support needs, creating inclusive environments, opportunities, and choices to enable people living in Ayrshire to live independent and fulfilling lives.

We are a leading social care provider however, through our unique organisational structure, we are so much more than that, placing innovation and passion at the forefront of delivering real change through a range of services and opportunities for the people we work for.

We do this through our fantastic team of more than 400 team members, whose dedicated approach to care and support creates a safe and positive environment for people to thrive, alongside our partnerships with healthcare agencies, organisations and businesses.
