Support for Families and Parents

Supporting someone you love who experiences behaviours of distress can sometimes feel overwhelming. Whether these behaviours are happening at home, in education, within community settings, or during a longer-term hospital placement, it can be difficult to understand what is happening and know what support will make a meaningful difference.

At Lancashire Behaviour Support Consultancy, we work alongside families to better understand the reasons behind behaviours, focusing on the person rather than just the behaviour itself. We believe that every behaviour communicates something, and by understanding a person’s needs, environment, communication, health and experiences, we can help create more supportive and positive outcomes.

We can support families by providing:

Functional Behaviour Assessments (FBA) to explore what may be contributing to behaviours of distress and identify meaningful strategies for support.
Behaviour observations across different environments to help build a clearer understanding of patterns, triggers, needs and strengths.
Reviews of existing assessments and support plans to ensure recommendations remain person-centred, appropriate and meaningful.
Tailored Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) interventions designed around the individual and their unique circumstances.
Support with Education, Health and Care Plans (EHCPs), helping families understand needs, identify appropriate support and contribute to effective planning.
Guidance and coaching for families, carers and wider support networks to increase confidence and consistency when responding to behaviours of distress.

Specialist Planning

Our approach is collaborative, compassionate and evidence-informed. We work with families, schools, healthcare teams and support providers to develop strategies that promote understanding, dignity, independence and quality of life. You don’t have to navigate this journey alone. If you’re looking for support, guidance or a clearer understanding of what your loved one may be communicating through their behaviour, we’re here to help.

Learning That Translates Into Practice

We focus on measurable outcomes, prevention, and consistency.

“Really good training session, conversation led which allows staff to participate making it less tedious which will increase the likelihood of staff absorbing the information shared”.
Richard, Healthcare Assistant

The most useful part of the training was learning about the S.E.A.T. model and understanding the function of behaviour. It helped me recognise that behaviour is a form of communication and how to identify what a person may be trying to express. I also found the practical examples and person-centred approach very valuable, as they gave me strategies I can use to support individuals more effectively and proactively in my role.

The practical guidance on safely guiding a blind/Partially blind person and communicating clearly and respectfully was the most valuable part of the training. It improved my confidence and awareness.

This was an engaging and informative training session. It has improved my understanding of Positive Behaviour Support and given me practical techniques that I can apply in my role to support people in a respectful, person-centred way. I would recommend this training to anyone working in social care.

Tina – support worker Oldham

“Anne-Marie has been a saving grace to a very desperate mum! My son has been struggling at school and home with his behaviour. Anne-Marie quickly arranged an observation via his school and completed a very thorough report, which was easy to understand, outlining XXXXx personality traits and ways to support him in his development. She has made me feel like finally someone understands and is listening to me. I would highly recommend her services and I’m confident I’ll need her again in the future!”
Sheffield Mum

“Ann-Marie challenged appropriately, supported effectively, explained her reasoning clearly, and persevered with consistency. She gathered evidence, used data, applied her training, and ensured her work remained of the highest professional standard, even when the circumstances around her were complex. What stood out most was her ability to stay calm, clear and person-centred in a room with many people, competing priorities and different pressures. She did not lose sight of the purpose of the work: to support the person well, uphold their rights and dignity, and ensure decisions were based on evidence, professional judgement and what was right for them. That takes real courage. It is not always easy to hold firm to ethical practice and professional boundaries when others disagree or apply pressure. Ann Marie did so with emotional intelligence, clarity and strength. She showed that professionalism is not about being detached. It is about being fair, accountable, evidence-informed and committed to doing the right thing, even when it is difficult. Ann Marie is an asset and an example of the standard we should aspire to. She kept the person we support at the centre, acted with integrity throughout, and demonstrated the kind of courage, professionalism and values-led practice that deserves to be recognised.”
