Suffolk County Council funds services to help people live
independently in their own homes. Some of these
services also provide housing but others will come to you if you
own or rent your home.
Our aim is to:
- Prevent problems that can cause homelessness, rent arrears,
other debts, hospitalisation or admittance to institutional
care;
- Ensure services are of a high quality and cost effective;
- Ensure services meet the needs of the individual
Our services can include helping you to:
- Access other support or community services
- Apply for benefits
- Develop social skills to reduce isolation
- Make life choices
- Set up and manage your home
Suffolk County Council works in partnership with district
and borough councils; health; probation; voluntary organisations;
housing associations; support agencies and service users
commissions to help people live independently in their own
homes.
