What is supporting People?

Supporting people aims to help vulnerable people improve their quality of life by enabling them to live more independently.

We provide a team with a wide range of BSL and communication skills to enable us to support across the deaf and hearing impaired community.

Housing related support focuses on enabling people to live as independently as possible in their accommodation.

• Floating Support-for people living in their own homes, who need regular support with a specific need: 

We support and aim to encourage independence:

• To meet responsibilities of having a tenancy or owning their home.
• Know how to get all the necessary services into their accommodation (utilities)
• Deal with and how to access services to improve and repair their property
• Keep their accommodation warm, safe, and comfortable
• Well being: to access appropriate services when necessary
• Accessing the community and local services
• Not to feel trapped or isolated in the accommodation to the point where they no longer wish to live there
