West Glamorgan Shared Lives

This scheme supports people with an assessed need, who want help living in their community. We match people who need support with professional, vetted and approved Shared Lives Carers. The carers provide housing and help within their homes to the people who need support. This often develops into broader networks of support.

The service is a growing alternative to residential care. It caters for people seeking:

• permanent or short-term housing
• short breaks
• sessional support
