Supporting People
Supporting People is a programme of support offered to help
vulnerable people maintain their housing independence. Support
providers, such as sheltered Scheme Managers for example, will
offer help and advice to people that helps make the difference in
enabling them to continue living independently. The programme is
funded by Kent County Council with a budget of over £30M pa. It
differs from the provision of social care which is often about
actually doing things for people – support encourages
people to do those things they are capable of for themselves
