About Us:
The Rehability UK Group is a dynamic and innovative family of companies, driven by the vision of our founder. We have grown from a base in the West Midlands, where we still have our Head Office in West Bromwich, to include services across the Midlands, and in both the South East and South West of England. The Rehability UK Community division is focussed on the West Midlands and the M25 corridor.
We support over 700 adults across a range of settings, employ around 1200 people across the country. These figures are not static, as the Group continues to develop and open new services.
