Our History
Since the late 1970s TCF has focused on innovative development in relation to Living Options, Services for Children and Young People, and Training and Employment Services.
The diversity of services in recent years meant the name NICOD was no longer relevant, resulting in the name change in April 2000. ‘The Cedar Foundation’ was chosen as the cedar
tree represents characteristics of Strength and Renewal, highly appropriate for an organisation committed to continuous improvement and vigorous pursuit of its aims.
In the early 1990s we began a process of internal review to ensure the organisation remained relevant to the needs of people with disabilities. This resulted in a managed move from segregated provision such as employment workshops to community based employment and training programmes, and development of an increased range of choices with regard to community living. This included Assisted Living
Schemes and Supported Living in partnership with Habinteg Housing Association.
