Supported Housing
Amflo Care Services ltd, supported living accommodation is primarily targeted at individuals at risk from the ages of 16 to 25 years. Our service is aimed at giving individuals the opportunity to live as independently as possible with help from staff when needed. We empower each individual to make their own choices to enable them to lead their lives in the best way they want to, in less restrictive ways possible. Our clients will have a tenancy agreement and will be given the same rights as anyone living in their own accommodation. Client choice is so important. So, living in a supported housing scheme, allows people to live in a house as if it’s their own, where they feel safe knowing that care or support is close whenever they need it. Our support is personalised depending on each client and their needs. The level of assistance is agreed upon from the outset with each client.
Accommodation.
We carefully choose our housing units to be near the places of interest and access to transport, major supermarkets, local services, and health services.
