Overview

Supported living is a term used to describe housing with support for people with a learning disability or mental health support need. People who live within supported living housing live as independently as possible with support staff, available 24 hours a day 7 days a week, to provide assistance with managing money, cooking and shopping, staying healthy and getting out and about.

The allocation of a supported living property is via Nottinghamshire County Council supported leaving team, applicants for these properties must meet the supported living criteria.
