The Brief
The guide is intended to provide practical advice for adult social care commissioners and council housing departments on how to establish a housing with support pipeline to meet the wide range of aspirations of people with a learning disability or autism.
The main focus of the guide is set on people who are Care Act eligible, as well as people with moderate or low needs who are ineligible for statutory services.
Our Approach
We worked on the following:
01
Bringing together a steering group composed of adult social care and housing representatives from different regions that met on multiple occasions to review the work undertaken and provide feedback.
02
Forecasting the housing needs for people with learning disability and/or autism, using population health data and local adult social care data, as well as producing a gap analysis using an annual assessment demand and taking into account the number of placements made to existing housing with support services.
03
Drawing together best practice examples and case studies of how people with learning disabilities and/or autism are being supported to access housing and homelessness services.
04
Explaining different funding sources that councils can use to build or convert housing, and the different types of partnership arrangements that they can develop with registered providers to secure additional funding.
05
Providing examples of councils that are using s106 to secure additional affordable housing units for people with a learning disability and/or autism and those using Community Infrastructure Levy to create accessible infrastructures.
The Results
The CT team delivered a fully comprehensive guide adhering to all of the points above. Read the full guide
Campbell Tickell also ran an online webinar attended by 100 people to explore the key themes of the guide. Attendees heard directly from the stakeholders who contributed to the some of the case studies.
