Supported housing for older people

There are many specialist services provided for older people.

The main aim of the Council is to assist older people to remain living at home where this is possible. Many services can be provided to people in their current homes but for some older people a move to smaller or supported accommodation may be the better option.

Supported accommodation is the term we use to denote all kinds of accommodation designated as being for older people where there is some form of support or care service provided with the tenancy.
