Independent accommodation

This is accommodation for people who may not have support needs. This can include accommodation that is:

• purchased and owned by you
• owned/rented by a family member
• rented from the council or a housing association
• rented from a private landlord.

If you move into independent accommodation, you may be able to have support provided to you in your home. Currently, if you live in independent accommodation you can:

• receive a direct payment so that you can choose the support provide
• choose a support provider from the current Supported Living Framework (your social worker can help you choose a provider).
