About Prosper Fingal
Choice, opportunity and belonging
Prosper Fingal is a not-for-profit organisation that provides services and supports to adults with an intellectual disability across County Fingal.
Our story
Working in Fingal since 1978
Prosper Fingal was established in 1978 by parents and friends of people with disabilities. Their aim was to create a local day service for adults with an intellectual disability.
The organisation grew from that community effort. Today, Prosper Fingal provides day, residential, respite and clinical supports. It is part of Prosper Group, which works across Counties Fingal and Meath.
Prosper Fingal provides social care services on behalf of the State and is funded through an annual service arrangement with the HSE.

Our values
How people should experience our support
These values guide decisions, relationships and everyday practice.
Person-centred
The person’s wishes, rights, strengths and goals are central.
Respectful
People are listened to and treated with dignity.

Support is dependable, skilled and accountable.
Ethical
Decisions should be fair, honest and rights-based.
Progressive
We learn, improve and look for better ways to support people.

Our approach
Support planned with the person
- Each person should have a personal plan based on what matters to them.
- A key worker can help the person communicate goals and organise agreed actions.
- Support should respond when needs or wishes change.
- Families, advocates and trusted people can be involved when the person wants this.
- People should know how to give feedback, raise a concern or make a complaint.
