The Model

Your own home, with support that flexes around you.

Supported living means living in your own home on your own tenancy — not in a care home — with a personalised package of support to help you live as independently as possible. People keep control of their home, their finances, their relationships and their daily choices.

At Support Health Care Ltd, support can range from a few visiting hours each week through to 24-hour, multi-staffed care. The model is built around the person, working closely with housing providers, families and commissioners.

Single-occupancy and shared schemes — matched thoughtfully to the people involved.
Tenancy rights protected — supporting people to understand and exercise their rights.
Outcomes-focused planning — building skills, confidence and independence over time.

Transition Pathways

Supporting young people into adult services.

Moving from children’s services into adulthood is a significant step. We work alongside young people, families, schools and transitions teams to make the move calm, planned and well-paced — not a sudden change.

Our transition support focuses on continuity: keeping trusted relationships where possible, building life skills early, and shaping a home and support plan that reflects the adult the young person is becoming.
