Supported/Semi-supported accommodation

We have access to supported and semi-supported accommodation both in Rotherham and outside of Rotherham.

Some of these homes are shared homes, where young people may have their own room, and there are staff in the home who support you with learning the skills you need to live independently in the future. Some of these homes are individual flats, with staff on site in an office who can help you. Your social worker and personal advisor will talk to you about whether these types of accommodation are right for you when you are thinking together about independence.

You can move into these types of arrangement from age 16, however we would prefer this move on arrangement was delayed at least until you have completed year 11 at school.
