"All council and housing association properties in Kent are let through the Homechoice portal - contact housingadvice@canterbury.gov.uk or tel 01227 862518.

Our service aims to keep people as independent as possible for as long as possible. To do this, we provide you with a personalised support plan, which is reviewed at least annually or more frequently if your support needs have changed.

The main areas of support we provide include things such as:
• Money: budgeting, dealing with benefits, managing debt
• Housing: managing a tenancy, adapting your home, dealing with neighbourhood issues
• Getting Involved: looking into education, training and employment
• Community Access: linking in with local services and social opportunities
• Health: managing health conditions and accessing health services.

Every customer also has a support plan that reflects your support needs and aspirations. Support workers regularly review your plan with you to make sure that it still reflects your needs.

Staff are on site Monday and Friday 9.00am–2.00pm. Out of hours, we use a telecare system, which can be accessed either by the intercom module or using your emergency pendant." Show less
