BECOMING A SHS TENANT
Who do we provide accommodation for?
Older People
Flats for older people are provided in a number of sheltered schemes
in the Borough. Most schemes have a Scheme Manager on site and are
linked to a Monitoring Centre for 24 hour emergency cover.
We aim to provide a pleasant and supportive environment in which
residents remain as independent as possible. London Borough of
Sutton Social Services or voluntary agencies may provide additional
support for tenants as necessary.
Tenants with high care needs receive a community Care Assessment by
Social Services. A number of flats are designed for wheelchair
users.
Families
We have 1 and 2 bedroom flats and 2, 3 and 4 bedroom houses for rent.
A number of flats are designed for wheelchair users.
Single Vulnerable People
We have a range of accommodation including self contained flats or a room in a house
with shared communal facilities. We provide support with the help
of other agencies. Our clients include young people
leaving care, people with mental health problems, people with learning
disabilities and ex-offenders.
