Description

Supported housing can be a powerful intervention in enabling individuals to remain independent in their own homes. The Authority aims to build on its successful Supported Housing programme by enhancing and expanding its current service offer of short-term accommodation and support (1-2 years) helping individuals maintain independence, develop resilience, wellbeing and practical skills to sustain tenancies, prevent homelessness and hospital admissions, enabling them to progress towards recovery and independent living - whilst reducing pressures on statutory services. The specification builds on long-standing services from the Supporting People Programme and subsequent commissioned services, retaining core principles while taking advantage of the Authority's broader remit as a housing authority. It is ambitious in the vision to deliver a comprehensive supported housing offer for individuals with diverse physical and mental health needs linked to housing and homelessness, providing consistent, high quality, holistic, recovery focused accommodation and floating support across the Authority area. The expansion reflects changes in social care, broadening the focus beyond mental health to include individuals facing multiple disadvantage such as substance use, homelessness, autism, mild learning disabilities and other complex needs where short-term targeted housing support can enable independent living. Preliminary market engagement has been carried out.
