Purpose: Adult Social Care is proposing to cease the Community Support Service for adults living independently at home and adapt the service for adults living in supported accommodation. The Community Support Service supports with tasks such as shopping, preparing meals, and accessing the community. If the proposal goes ahead, people living at home would be found alternative support in the community, while Supported Living services would be reconfigured so an individual's support was all provided by the accommodation based staff. The proposal is one of a number that the department has been consulting on to help close the Council’s funding gap. The results of the consultation will be shared and Cabinet will make a decision on whether the proposal goes ahead or not.
