What types of supported living are there?
There are a variety of different types of supported living we can offer, and we’ll strive to find the best option for you.
Solo Living
You could choose to live independently in your own flat with as much or as little support as you need. This could be in one of our already established properties, or we can work with you and our housing partners to source a property that meets your needs.
Shared living
We can help connect you to other people who might want to live independently too but aren’t yet ready to live alone. You will have your own space but benefit from socialising with other like- minded people, sharing the communal spaces and sharing the costs of household bills.
Apartment living
You may be looking for the best of both worlds. Your own modern apartment with some shared communal space so you can choose when and if you want to socialise. We have worked with our housing partners to develop this popular type of accommodation. We are working with our housing partners to develop this popular type of accommodation.
Step-down Accommodation
This provides stability whilst clients are between long-term support solutions. This type of support will help the client plan for their future in a structured way. We will support the client with the skills they need to help them live more independently and, when they are ready, support them to move on.
Crisis Intervention
We provide temporary and crisis intervention accommodation for those experiencing a crisis or change. We can work intensively until they feel able to reintegrate. We work in close partnership with Mental health teams, IATT (Intensive Assessment and Treatment Team) and other professionals to create recovery pathways.
Respite Care
We provide temporary relief for a primary caregiver, enabling you to take a much-needed break from the demands of caregiving a vulnerable individual, our respite services provide a home away from home. Support can be speedily arranged in the event of an emergency situation.
Is supported living right for you?
A more flexible option of care
Supported living is a very much more flexible option than a residential home. It is suitable for people with a range of different needs including help with communicating, managing challenging behaviours and developing social friendships and budgeting everyday life.
We use ACE Principles in our day-to-day work with clients to build a non-judgmental and empathic relationship. This will help to develop an effective work pattern bringing harmony and compassion to clients.
