Accommodation classed as supported living:
2. A list of supported living accommodation providers (social landlords, voluntary providers, housing associations .etc) that the council has contracts with, or has individuals in placement with, that have a learning disability or mental health difficulty.
This is information that is available on our public contract register which can be accessed here: https://procontract.due-north.com/ContractsRegister/Index?p=679bb2ba-7898-4a4c-b4e3-c8eb6a07a3dc&v=2
We don’t hold a list of contracts within Place Commissioning. Loddon Homes, our wholly owned Registered Provider, has some supported accommodation that we place with.

For your reference, the definition of 'exempt accommodation' includes: accommodation provided by a county council, housing association, registered charity or organisation where care, support or supervision is provided to the tenant/claimant. In this case, the FOI is particularly interested in 'supported living' services and accommodation which provides a care element, regardless of whether the care is provided by an external provider or someone associated with the landlord.
