What is Supported living?
Owning or renting your own home is an important part of having control in your life. Supported living is about choosing how, where and who you live with. It is about having support provided around the individual rather than the individual fitting into a service.
Different people need help in different ways to enable them to live the life they would like to live. For some people this could mean help for just a few hours a week, perhaps to prepare meals or to go shopping, or for others it could mean having someone support them day and night.
Affinity Trust and Supported living
Affinity Trust has long held the view that supported living is right for just about anyone, regardless of their level of support needs. Where many people and organisations have said "No" to an individual, we have said "Yes". People with learning disabilities should have the opportunity to achieve the level of independence and fulfilment in life that they strive for and we are here to help make this happen.
Supported living in action
Currently Affinity Trust helps around 650 people in the UK. Whether support is being paid for by a local authority or through a person’s own budget, Affinity Trust can create a plan to meet the needs of every individual.
