Richmond upon Thames – Supported Living Specification

Why might it be of interest?

This lays out the council’s standards for providers of supported living placements, describing the minimum requirements and standards for providers providing any part of the service.

 Information about the ROSE framework might also be of interest which is the LAs approach to recommissioning accommodation-based care and support services for adults with a learning disability and/or autism, running until 2027:

The ROSE framework covers:

• Residential Care
• Outreach support
• Supported living

Planned respite (ie short breaks) will not be commissioned through the ROSE framework.
