Supported living

Return to Market Overview | Return to the MPS home page

Supported Living Services enable people with Learning Disabilities, Autism, Mental Health needs, physical disabilities and/or sensory impairments to live independently in their own homes with the care and support they need to do this.

In March 2023, there were 620 people receiving approximately 60,000 hours of support within supported living services in the Bradford District, mainly in shared properties or individual flats in purpose built developments.

From July 2023 our new Supported Living Provider List which covers services for people with Learning Disabilities, Autism, physical disabilities and/or sensory impairments is in place. All support providers wanting to deliver supported living services in Bradford must join the Provider List.

Over the coming years, we want to work with people who use services and providers to transform our supported living provision so that everyone gets the right support at the right time, and are supported to live within their own homes and within their own communities. This will include looking at ways to maximise choice and control, improve the range of accommodation available to people, and creating flexible services that respond to individual needs and can change as people’s lives change.
