Social care practitioners going above and beyond – Emily and Margaret’s supported living story
Description
Home is where the heart is. That is no truer than during this week’s podcast.
Would you have associated a housing association with social care services? Dr Wendy Austin MBE guides the conversation in this episode to cover a variety of perspectives and insights into the world of supported living, disability housing and social care.
She covers topics like…what is supported living? Why is it important? What is it like for those who live in supported living housing? And how come most of us don’t know that housing associations, like Triangle Housing, provide it as part of their social care services to the community – well at least until we might need them.
What is clear to see is that individual housing choices, such as supported living, are a lifeline for many across Northern Ireland empowering people with a disability to plan where they live and call home.
How can we help more people with disabilities live more inclusive lives in the community? Listen to find out!
