Supported living services
Supported living services can help if you do not want to live in residential care but you're finding it difficult to cope at home. They're a combination of suitable accommodation – which can be your own home – with some forms of personal care (like help with washing or cooking). Our team provide 24/7 care to you at home and out in the community and do simple tasks such as shopping, housework and basic repairs. We can also help with administrative tasks and personal care.
Why choose supported living services?
Supported living services are flexible and sometimes better value for money than the alternatives, whether you fund your own care or receive a personal budget. The activities we perform such as any personal care you receive – such as help with washing or preparing food, or help eating meals – is regulated by Care Quality Commission.

Please take the time to watch the film below, Gloucestershire County Council Learning Disability Team commissioned Inclusion Gloucestershire to make a film about supported living. The film uses disabled and non-disabled actors to tell the story of someone making the transition into supported living and how they made that journey.
Inclusion Gloucestershire is a user-led disability organisation based in the South West. Who aim to capture the voice of people who all too frequently can be excluded.
You may hear about supported living services during a needs assessment. If a supported living service arrangement is not suitable for you, you may still want to think about personal care at home, wherever you live, and other help, such as household equipment to make your life easier or home adaptations.
