Floating Support is housing-related support provided to people in their
own homes. Since 2005 ILA has been providing floating support to
people with learning disabilities living in St. Helens. We have also
set up a floating support service in Warrington for service users with
mental health problems who move into independent accommodation from
our supported housing.
Domiciliary Care is also a service provided to people in their own
homes but includes an element of personal care necessary to enable
service users to maintain their independence. ILA has been registered
as a domiciliary care agent with CSCI (Commission for Social Care Inspection)
since January 2006 and is providing a domiciliary care service for
people with learning disabilities in St Helens.
