TESTIMONIALS

“Nathan has developed an excellent rapport with the residents who look forward to his visits. He has consistently delivered an interesting and varied programme and worked with every resident to improve their mobility and have fun doing so. I admire the empathy he has with everyone and that he is able to not only deliver an excellent group ‘Movement to Music’ session, but also one to one exercises tailored to the abilities of the individual”.

Nathan is great with the residents in the care home, they adore him. We would highly recommend Ability Support & Education.

Before I started my home exercise sessions, I hardly left the house. I’d lost confidence in my balance and didn’t feel safe walking far, even around the kitchen. Shiobhan was so patient and encouraging. She designed gentle exercises that suited my abilities and helped me believe in myself again. Each week I felt a little stronger and a little more confident. After completing my 12-week programme, I can now walk to the local shop on my own to do my food shopping — something I never thought I’d be able to do again. It’s made such a difference to my independence and happiness. I can’t thank Shiobhan enough for her kindness and support.” — Ann, Staffordshire

After suffering multiple strokes, I was told I might never walk again. I relied completely on my wheelchair and felt like I’d lost my independence. Working with Ability Support & Education changed everything. The team believed in me when I didn’t believe in myself. The sessions were gentle at first, but over time my strength and confidence grew with every visit. Now, I can walk on a treadmill — something I never thought possible. It’s given me hope, motivation, and a new sense of freedom. I’m so grateful for the patience, encouragement, and care I received.

When I first started with Ability Support & Education, I was classed as morbidly obese, struggling with diabetes and high blood pressure, and taking multiple tablets every day. With Shiobhan’s guidance, personalised advice, and constant encouragement, I began to change my habits and regain control of my health. Over time, I lost 11 stone, my blood pressure returned to normal, and I no longer rely on tablets. At 78, I’m now very active, feel amazing, and even won an award from a local organisation recognising my efforts and progress. I’ve truly transformed my life — healthier, happier, and more confident than ever.

I wanted to lose weight and improve my fitness and overall health. I lost over 4 stone and I am now the fittest I have ever been in my life. Im still not an athlete YET! but I am motivated enough to get there. Thanks to the team for the contact encouragement! definitely recommended. Thank you everyone from Rachel
