Community Supported Living
What is Supported Living in the community ?
Supported living services offer care and assistance for those living in rented accommodation or in their own homes. Under a supported living arrangement, personal care and accommodation are provided under separate contractual agreements. Housing is often provided through the local authority or a registered housing association, and funded through the individual's benefits or earnings. Support is delivered by a care provider, like Care Consult and funded by the local council and in some cases the NHS.
Engagement, involvement, inclusiveness and enablement are themes that run throughout all aspects of our work. We maintain an ethos of individual development through experience with the aim to support each individual in achieving independence and appropriate community access, presence and participation. This will include a range of developmental and therapeutic support and opportunities. Individuals will also be supported to take up meaningful employment in the community and or attend local colleges for vocational studies of their choice
