Supported Living
|
What is Supported Living? Supported living is where people live in their own home, but they get help with things like cooking, shopping, and paying bills.
|
|
People are supported to live independently in their own home in the community. They can be helped to do this by The Supported Living Service.
|
|
People can choose to live by themselves or share with others.
|
|
The Government’s White Paper ‘Valuing People’ (2001) said that people with learning disabilities should have more choice and control over where and how they live.
|
|
Some good things about Supported Living are: - becoming independent
- belonging to a Community
- having your rights in your own home
- having support that is right for you
