What we do

Adult Placement (also known as Shared Lives) is a model of care whereby vulnerable adults receive support and / or accommodation within a family environment provided by approved Adult Placement Hosts.
We assess and train Adult Placement Hosts. We 'match' hosts and service users and monitor placements so that both hosts and services users benefit from the placement.

Who do we support

Vulnerable people over the age of 18.

Hosts come from a wide range of backgrounds and have varied work and life experiences and interests. The people who use adult placement are as varied as our hosts. Some of the service users live with hosts for many years and some stay for one or two years while they learn the skills to live on their own. Hosts also provide short breaks and day / or evening support to service users.

Is there a charge to use this service?

Depends - Subject to a financial assessment
Anyone accommodated in a long term placement will be required to pay a client contribution.

Can anyone use this service?

Referrals are accepted from Community Support Teams following an assessment of individual needs. You will need to contact C1V to request an assessment on 01446 700111
