1. The Strategic Intent Document for Accommodation with Care and Support be approved.
2. That future developments will include a full business case and be presented for Cabinet approval as appropriate.
Reasons for Decisions:
With changing demographics, increasing financial challenges, and a joint health and social care strategy to support people to live independently in their homes for as long as possible, the Council needs to commission the right accommodation options to meet eligible residents’ health and wellbeing needs. To do this, the Council will work with partners and the private sector to develop the market in Surrey for accommodation with care and support. This paper sets out a clear ambition and message to the market in relation to future needs, and provides a strong base for Surrey to work together with developers in the private sector, as well as Health and District and Borough partners to find the right local solutions.
