Exempt Accommodation is where the Landlord is either a Non-Metropolitan County Council, charity, voluntary organisation or housing association. The Landlord has a legal interest (ownership or lease) of accommodation and that accommodation houses people who require and receive “care, support & supervision”. Any provider wishing to set up as Exempt has to claim through the Benefit system for an enhanced Housing Benefit payment and to obtain Supported Exempt Status. Support provision within the SEA sector is largely ‘unregulated’ and sits outside of the jurisdiction of the LA and CQC.
The Team has a primary role in responding to complaints or concerns pertaining to poor or insufficient support and adult safeguarding enquiries. Candidates will need to have extensive experience of working with and supporting people who have multiple disadvantages including homelessness, domestic violence, asylum seekers, Prison service, substance misuse, mental health.
