Residential Services for Adults with Disabilities

Learning disability and autism residential services provide accommodation and care for adults

How it can help

There are generally two types of residential accommodation:

  • shared houses
  • individual units (similar to flats)

Shared houses

In shared houses, adults get their own bedroom and share services and amenities with other adults also living there. Catering, activities and amenities are provided.

Individual units

In individual units, adults have their own kitchen, bathroom and lounge. The home may also have some communal facilities.

Age

16+

Eligibility
