The services are aimed at enabling people to develop independent living skills and maintain independence in the community
They can provide housing related support in two ways
  • Through schemes such as supported housing; 24 hour projects, Medium level ( 9-5 ) & lower level 
  • Within your own home ( Floating Support )
 
Support is provided on a short term basis and is normally dependent on your needs.
Supporting people services are free of charge for Floating support
There are certain charges for supported projects, plus utilities
