Specialised supported housing is residential accommodation designed or adapted for vulnerable adults who require care and/or support to live independently within the community.
These homes provide long-term, stable accommodation tailored to residents’ individual needs, supporting greater independence, wellbeing and quality of life. Properties are typically leased to Approved Providers regulated by the Regulator of Social Housing, with rental income ultimately supported through government-funded housing benefit mechanisms.
As essential social infrastructure, SSH plays an important role in reducing reliance on institutional care settings, whilst delivering positive social outcomes and supporting some of the most vulnerable people in society.
Senior living assets are purpose-built residential accommodation and community developments that provide rental homes for people aged 55 and over.
These assets are designed to support independent living, with optional on-site care and support services available where required. Senior living can help improve resident wellbeing, increase housing choice for older people and reduce pressure on wider health and social care services.
Care home assets are purpose-built or purpose-adapted residential healthcare facilities that combine accommodation with on-site regulated care and/or nursing services for individuals who can no longer live independently due to age, disability or medical need.
These assets provide essential care infrastructure, supporting residents with day-to-day living and healthcare needs in a safe and professionally managed environment. Care homes are typically operated by specialist providers regulated by the Care Quality Commission and benefit from long-term demographic demand driven by the UK’s ageing population.
Care homes play an important role in delivering high-quality care, improving resident wellbeing and supporting wider health and social care provision across the UK.
