Services for Young People

SWAN Independent Living provides the following services for young people:

• One-to-one support from an experienced care worker for up to 10 hours;
• Individually tailored, flexible support programme;
• Quality shared accommodation in the Stevenage area;
• 24-hour telephone support from a fully vetted and qualified senior member of staff.

SWAN Independent Living is a semi-independent living environment focussed on preparing young people to live independently within the wider community.

When a young person has developed independent living skills, becomes self-confident and  is ready to move on, SWAN Independent Living trained support workers will introduce a plan to gradually decrease the levels of support. SWAN Independent Living support workers will always work to make this as smooth a transition as possible for the young person.
