HOUSING

Research into the financial benefits of the Supporting People programme (16th January 2008)
Study to assess the financial benefits of the Supporting People programme, which provides strategically planned housing related services to vulnerable people. The purpose of the study is to inform discussions with Treasury in the run up to the Comprehensive Spending Review. Notably, the study holds that investment in packages of support that include housing support services avoids costs elsewhere, and therefore produces a net financial benefit in the region of GBP 2.77 billion per annum for the client groups considered.
