Floating Support Service

Our Goals - Our Floating Support Service provides low level housing related support to adults with learning disabilities to live independently in their own homes

Our Aims - For tenants to have control over their lives and to gradually reduce the support they need from Delos

 Our support is focused on:

• Adults with learning difficulties who are over 18 years of age and live in Northamptonshire
• Meeting houseing needs
• Agreeing and reviewing support plans
• Increasing independence
• Individuals who live in their own home, who either pay rent for the property or are owners of the property

Our support will help individuals to:

• Manage the payment for their accommodation
• Budget and manage bills
• Claim welfare benefits and housing benefits
• Understand their responsibilities as a tenant or owner occupier
• Obtain all the necessary service into their home i.e. gas, electricity, water etc
• Know how to deal with repairs and/or improvements to their home
• Keep their accommodation warm, safe and comfortable
• Look after themselves and stay safe
• Find additional care and support if needed
• Develop skills to manage appliances/equipment in their home
• Build neighbour relations
• Connect with their community to prevent isolation or feeling trapped in their own home
• Liaise with other agencies
