The purpose of this report is to present
options for delivery of four 5-bed supported living apartments at
the Bridgewell site and seek approval of the recommended option -
council to build and thereafter appoint the Registered Provider
(RP) and a separate Care & Support provider. Supported Living
enables people with a learning disability and/or autism to live
independently, whether in shared accommodation or in their own
home. By investing in good quality home styled accommodation, the
Council will continue to demonstrate its commitment to ensuring
that people are supported to be independent, resilient, physically
and emotionally healthy.
