Distinguishing General Needs Housing from Specialised Supported Accommodation
Planning policy requires distinguishing between general needs housing with peripatetic/floating support services and specialised supported accommodation where support services are integrated with accommodation-based solutions.
For PPS 12 purposes it is necessary to distinguish between general needs housing where support needs are provided on a peripatetic/floating basis and the provision of specialised supported accommodation. In the latter the requirement for complementary housing support services are assessed, planned, and delivered in conjunction with accommodation based-solutions.
