Support for living? provides a critical analysis of the impact the
Supporting People programme has had on housing and support for
people with learning disabilities. It explores not only outcomes
for service users, but also the implications of these for provider
organisations and commissioners of social care. The report
demonstrates how local definitions of 'housing related support'
have resulted in unequal provision of services across the country
and identifies a range of frameworks for delivering housing and
support, and demonstrates how these relate to differing outcomes
for services users. It evaluates "5-year Supporting People"
strategies from across England and questions whether the principles
of supported living have in some cases been diluted in the rush to
access a new source of funding, as well as providing 'best practice
checklists' for various aspects of the delivery of high quality
supported housing. Essential reading for managers and commissioners
of learning disability services and members of Supporting People
teams, the report will also be of value to anyone interested in
supported housing or services for vulnerable adults.
