The Housing with Care Affordability Guide aims to help providers and commissioners of housing with care (HWC) understand affordability from the perspective of self-funding residents (prospective and current).
This is a 'toolkit' for local authorities with adult social services and housing responsibilities. The toolkit is intended to assist local authorities with their partners to plan effectively for the housing requirements of local people with learning disabilities and to be able to deliver a wider range of housing options in practice. It is intended to assist local authorities to deliver the objective of more people with moderate to severe learning disabilities living in their own homes.
The toolkit is set out in two main parts: Planning and delivery.
The toolkit is designed so that each 'component' section can be used independently, or it can be used in its entirety as a sequential series of steps and actions.
