Supporting Independence Service

The Service objective is for the provision of non-statutory Supporting Independence Service. The Service's aim is to improve the quality of life for vulnerable and isolated people, maximising their independence and helping them to remain safe and comfortable in their own communities for as long as possible, whilst maintaining their individual dignity, privacy, freedom of choice and being treated with respect.

The Provider will deliver a high quality, flexible and innovative service for vulnerable and older people to ensure that they receive the support they need to maximise their independence and prevent, reduce, or delay the need to access long term care and other statutory provision. The service should combat isolation and exclusion and help to keep the vulnerable or older person as part of their local community.
