Supporting people

Most of us want to live independently in our own homes. But many people need some help and support.

They might need support because they're young and at risk, or an older person who needs help at hand. Or they may have a physical, sensory or learning disability. They could be homeless, at risk of domestic violence or have a drug or alcohol dependency for instance.

Support comes in a variety of packages: from very basic help and guidance, to more regular hands-on support.

How to get support

• See the City Council's housing support service.
• Or find out more about what other providers can offer - see Manchester's Supporting People website.
