About us
“Guideposts is a people centred charity, we care passionately about the communities we serve. We exist to ensure that people can be connected to their community and feel part of society.” Matthew Jones - CEO - Guideposts
Guideposts is a UK based charity working with people in local communities to help them access the support, opportunities and skills they need to overcome social inequalities, improve their wellbeing and change their lives.
We run a range of services that are focused on helping people to achieve their potential regardless of their circumstances. We connect people together so that they can experience the joy that comes from friendship, activity, learning, purpose and occupation. We love what we do and we love seeing people flourish.
Many of the people we support come from the most disadvantaged groups in our society, including children and adults with additional needs and disabilities, people with mental health problems, older people with dementia and other neuro-degenerative conditions, and the families or carers of all these groups. We believe that all people should be equally valued and have an equal chance to live the best life possible, that is why we do what we do.
Together we are the Guideposts community, helping each other to achieve better wellbeing.
