Durham County Council (DCC) are looking to explore the market options for Specialist Supported Housing for People with Complex Needs (Adults and or Young People with Learning Disability / Autism)
Durham County Council is seeking to engage with Registered Housing Providers, developers and other market partners, in County Durham, to inform future specialist supported housing/property requirements for people (Adults and or Young People) with complex needs, including:
•Autism
•Learning Disabilities
•Mental Health needs
•Behaviours of distress that may result in harm to themselves, others, staff teams or their living environment
The Council would welcome views on the opportunities, challenges and practical considerations associated with delivering sustainable, high-quality accommodation that promotes independence, wellbeing and long-term value for money.
The accommodation needs required have been informed and influenced by regional and national reports from statutory agencies including Building the Right Support (2015) and Supported housing for people with learning disabilities and autistic people in England (Housing LIN 2023). They have also been shaped by CQC guidance on accommodation scale and local learning from previous specialist developments for complex accommodation provisions.
