Supported Accommodation Service
At Creative Living Care, we provide high-quality, person-centred Supported Accommodation for young people aged 16 and over who are preparing to leave care and take their first steps towards independent living. Our service also offers post-18 placements, ensuring continuity of care and support for young adults who may still need a structured, nurturing environment beyond their 18th birthday.
Our Supported Accommodation provision is Ofsted registered and operates under ‘Category 1’ placements, meaning it meets the highest standards of safety, quality, and governance. We work closely with Local Authorities and partner agencies to create tailored support packages that meet each young person’s individual needs, aspirations, and goals.
Solo Accommodation (Self-Contained Flat/house) – Bespoke Floating Support.
Our Solo Accommodation with Bespoke Floating Support offers young people the opportunity to live in their own self-contained home while receiving structured, personalised support to help them move confidently towards full independence.
We provide high-quality studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom flats or houses within the local community. Each property is fully self-contained and includes its own private kitchen, bathroom, living and sleeping areas, allowing young people to experience the responsibilities and routines of independent living in a safe, supportive environment.
This type of provision is best suited to children and young people who have already developed a positive understanding of interdependence and independence, and who are ready to take the next step in their journey. However, we recognise that continued guidance, skill-building, and consistent monitoring are still essential — and our floating support model is designed to provide exactly that.
Our floating support package includes:
A minimum of 15 hours of structured support each week, delivered by our experienced support team
Flexible keywork sessions tailored to the young person’s needs, covering life skills, budgeting, cooking, education, employment, and emotional wellbeing
Additional drop-in visits from Managers and/or Creative Practitioners to ensure ongoing progress, safety and engagement
Access to a 24-hour on-call service for reassurance and emergency support, whenever it’s needed
This model offers the perfect balance of freedom and safety, empowering young people to build independence while knowing they have a strong, reliable safety net around them.
Solo Accommodation (Self-Contained Flat/House) – 24-Hour Onsite Support
Our Solo Accommodation with 24-Hour Onsite Support provides young people with the opportunity to live in their own self-contained home while benefiting from the reassurance of round-the-clock support.
These placements are based within small community settings, consisting of studio, one-bedroom or two-bedroom self-contained flats/houses arranged in blocks of 2 to 5 units. Each property includes its own private kitchen, bathroom, living and sleeping areas, giving young people the chance to experience genuine independence within a safe and structured environment.
This provision has been purposefully designed as a ‘hybrid model’ of Supported Accommodation for young people aged 16 to 17 who are working towards independence but still require a higher level of daily guidance, structure, and emotional support.
Our experienced Creative Practitioners are onsite 24/7, providing consistent care, supervision, and practical assistance as needed — while also encouraging the development of key life skills such as budgeting, cooking, cleaning, and tenancy management.
In addition to the onsite support, all young people also have access to our 24-hour on-call service for reassurance and emergency assistance whenever it is required.
This model offers the best of both worlds — the independence of living alone, combined with the safety, structure, and stability of a supportive staff presence at all times.
