    Hi @hanaban,

    Welcome to Scope's online community! It's great to have you here.

    We have a handy search tool on our website where you can search for supported living in your area, which you might find useful. I've also moved this post into our Housing and Independent Living category, where other members of our community may be able to advise.

    I hope this helps. If you have any other questions, then please do get in touch.

    Hi @hanaban,

    Northamptonshire Adult Social Services has a page about Housing Options if you're assessed as having eligible needs.

    You could also get some local advice from Northamptonshire CIL and they might be able to advise you of what's available in your local area too.

    I hope this helps and please do let us know if there's anything else you want to ask.

    Best wishes
    Debbie

    Good morning 

    My mother wants me to move into a supported living accommodation in the same place at Purley, Croydon as my best friend but in my chagrin, dismay and vexation, I strongly refused and rejected the idea because I wanted a place of my own at Sutton. 

    In her anger, my mum she called me an ungrateful cow, a spoiled selfish brat, I will not stand for this! Worse my sister said I'm close-minded and stubborn. My mother hates me and so does my sister.

     Ever since he moved to a supported living accommodation, I pointed out that he brought this on himself, rebuffed him and banned myself from speaking to him and I started being with the rest of my friends just to expand my social circle. I would rather be with other people than just one person most of the time.

     I researched Active Care Group on the internet and on YouTube behind her back. 


    I didn't know what to do.

    Please help me  :'(

    From Chloe

    Hello @chloeblue04

    I'm sorry to hear you are having such a difficult time with the relationship with your mum and sister. You mentioned a he? and  I wondered if that was a typo or if there is someone who is a support for you?

    By "he" I'm referring to my best friend.
