What is supported living?

Supported living care helps adults with additional needs live independently in their own home or shared accommodation while receiving tailored support with daily tasks.

The difference between supported living and residential care in Plymouth

Supported living offers more independence, as individuals live in their own home, whereas residential care provides 24-hour support within a care home setting.


Who is supported living suitable for?

It is suitable for adults who need support with daily living but want to maintain independence, including those with learning disabilities, autism, or mental health needs.
