Adult Social Care is proposing to cease the on-site support provided at three Supported Accommodation services for adults with mental health needs and two Supported Accommodation services for adults with additional support needs who are homeless or at risk of homelessness. The on-site support helps residents to develop independent living and tenancy sustainment skills, and to access training, qualifications and employment, supporting people to move on to independent living. The proposal is one of a number that the department has been consulting on to help close the Council’s funding gap. The results of the consultation for Supported Accommodation will be shared and Cabinet will make a decision on whether the proposal goes ahead or not.
