Supported Housing Strategy
What is this consultation about?
Derby City Council has drafted a Supported Housing Strategy for 2027–2032. Supported housing provides accommodation with support for people who need extra help to live safely and independently, recover from crisis, keep their tenancy or move towards more independent living.
The draft Strategy is based on a needs assessment, housing and homelessness data, adult social care information, stakeholder engagement and local practice. We want your views on our proposed vision and priorities before we finalise it.
Why is this needed?
Demand for supported housing is increasing.
People’s needs are becoming more complex.
More older people are expected to need housing with support in the future.
Many people are ready to move on from supported housing but cannot access suitable accommodation.
There are gaps in provision for some groups and a need to improve quality, oversight and support pathways.
This consultation document is not intended to present the final strategy. Instead, using the evidence we have started to draft a strategy but we need more information and feedback to help develop this further and it asks residents, people with lived experience, providers, partners and other stakeholders whether the proposed vision and priorities are the right ones for Derby.
For more information please read the consultation document and the draft strategy before completing the survey.
Please submit your response by 9am, Monday 11 January 2027.
