General housing with support

If a young person has adult care and support needs and they have their own home, either owned, through local authority housing or privately rented, additional support is available. This is different for each person, but could include support with shopping, budgeting, maintaining their home or getting out and about.

As young people prepare for adulthood, thinking about where they'd like to live is an important step. There are a range of options available depending on a number of factors, including where you'd like to live, who with and how much support you need.

Supporting young people to explore their options is really important, so they have time to think about what's important to them to allow them to achieve their goals.
