Shared Lives is regulated form of social care where an adult with support needs moves in with a registered Shared Lives carer, and lives with them as part of their household in a family environment.
Shared Lives care is delivered locally through registered Shared Lives schemes who recruit Shared Lives carers and match them with adults who need support.
Shared Lives Plus supports Shared Lives schemes and Shared Lives carers by providing advice, networking opportunities, and training.
We also offer a national perspective on Shared Lives for our members, the wider social care sector, and local, devolved, and national governments.
