Supported Living Schemes Supported HousingSocial Care and Health is committed to ensure that adults with a mental health problem are given every opportunity to live full and independent lives in ordinary homes in the community. Our aim is to assist people to achieve the best possible mental health by working to enhance personal development. The Supported Living Scheme is designed to meet the needs of individuals by supporting them in their own homes.
What is the Supported Living Scheme?The Supported Living Scheme offers a service to people with severe and enduring mental health problems.
At present the scheme has 7 houses in the North Durham area that were purchased in partnership with housing associations. All the houses are shared living accommodation and every resident holds a normal tenancy. All the houses are supported by a team of support workers and each resident has an individual key worker.
