Supporting People Strategy
Purpose
As part of the Supporting People programme local authorities are required to publish a five-year Supporting People Strategy, the document is to be submitted to the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister (ODPM) in March 2005.
The purpose of this Strategy is to set out how the programme is being realised and embraced locally & what direction will be taken in order to ensure that all Supporting People funded services are strategically relevant, diverse and inclusive, good quality & value for money.
This 5 Year Strategy should be seen as the Supporting People position statement identifying, the local vision for Supporting People, what the current situation is with regard to the supply of housing related support services in the Borough (refer to appendix 1, a definition of housing related support eligible tasks), and priorities for ensuring that the programme is meeting local, regional and national objectives. This strategy is a working document and as such will be regularly reviewed over its life-cycle.
