Governance & Structure

Living Options Devon is governed by a Board of Trustees, 80% of whom have a disability. Our strength is the people who work for us. We have a strong and committed Board, Senior Management Team and staff members.

We actively invest in our teams to ensure they have high level of skills for the role they perform within the organisation. In the person specification of all roles within Living Options Devon there is a requirement that the person has a commitment to the underpinning principles of the Social Model of Disability. All our interviews are conducted with a disabled member and/or Deaf community member involved in the process and decision making.

About Us

Living Options Devon is a well respected user-led organisation which works to ensure that people with disabilities and Deaf people can live the life they choose. Set up in 1990 LOD is a registered charity (Charity N0. 1102489) and a company limited by guarantee (No. 4925281). Based in Exeter and Barnstaple, our charitable aims mean we we can offer services across the South West and share good practice throughout the UK. Being led and run by people with disabilities and Deaf people ensures LOD has first hand knowledge and understanding of the issues facing service users and so is very well placed to increase the influence and voice of Deaf and disabled people. We do this by providing education, training and services which enable people to live the lives they choose.
