Vulnerable People Housing Service

The Vulnerable People Housing Service (formerly known as the Community Care Unit) sits within Sandwell MBC's Community Care Division.  This also includes the Floating Support Service and Community Alarms.

The Service provides specialist housing options and advice to individuals as well as statutory and voluntary agencies where a housing need has been identified.

Our mission is to improve the quality of life for vulnerable people in Sandwell by providing a person centred approach to housing and resettlement.

We provide advice and assistance on access to housing and support services for vulnerable people who are:

• Being discharged from hospital, rehabilitation units or residential care
• Moving on from Sandwell’s supported housing projects or supported lodgings
• Young people leaving care
• Young families including teenage parents
• Young People aged 16 to 25 who require Supported Housing
• Vulnerable families via the Vulnerable Families Housing Panel
• People with learning disabilities who need accommodation as part of the supported living model
• People who need an adapted property (via the Housing Occupational Therapist)
• People who need to move to Extra Care sheltered housing
