Social 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.
