Hi just that really, I'm living with my adult son who will be 20 in December, he has autism and suffers from anxiety, he can hold down a job if he can go straight there and straight home and it's the same routine but this only lasts for short periods of time, he also as you can imagine spends most of his time at home, but for his future and independence I was looking at some kind of supportive living but I'm unsure of how to go about organising this I would really appreciate any ideas on this

a lady at my slimming world has recently organised this for her son as she needed him to be independent as she’s in her 60’s!

she phoned adult social care who allocated a social worker and they helped her with the whole process and funding and the ongoing support element.

I hope you can find something suitable and good on you for thinking of this and a long term plan as I appreciate this must be a really difficult thing to navigate.
