You can search for support in your local area using our online directory. This directory gives you details about the housing support services that are funded by the Supporting People Programme.
The performance of services funded through the Supporting People programme is measured against key performance indicators (KPIs) and service performance indicators (SPIs).
Many different groups of people can benefit from housing related support through the Supporting People programme.

We make payments to Supporting People delivery partners in line with funding agreements. Payments are made in arrears, based on a 4 weekly payment timetable.
We aim to work in partnership with Supporting People funded organisations to support and enable the delivery of excellent services to vulnerable people.
The accreditation process makes sure all organisations that receive Supporting People funding have the structure and capacity to deliver quality services.
