The CIH, in collaboration with Riverside, have produced a
research report on supported housing which covers:
·
The significant variation in the Local Housing
Allowance (LHA) cap across the country
·
Rents and service charges for supported and
sheltered housing are relatively consistent across the country for similar
types of scheme.
·
A higher LHA cap would reduce the numbers of
people affected by the new system
·
A relatively small increase in the LHA cap for
older people living in sheltered housing would have a large impact in reducing
the number of people reliant on the local top up
·
A higher LHA cap could go some way to
simplifying the new system
