Adult Social Care is proposing to significantly reduce the funding for the Floating Support Service. The service supports people aged 16+ years with housing related needs to engage with support, preventing escalation and increased risks of homelessness or the failure to continue living independently. 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 the Floating Support Service will be shared and Cabinet will make a decision on whether the proposal goes ahead or not.
