Diverse Supported Accommodation CIC provides high-quality supported housing for adults aged 18–65 with mental health needs across all areas of London. We invest in our properties, our maintenance team, and our technology so that every resident lives somewhere genuinely cared for — and we work only with vetted support providers who meet our standards.

Review our offer →Supported housing is accommodation where residents hold their own tenancy with the housing provider and receive support, supervision or care — under a separate arrangement — to help them live as independently as possible in the community.
It is distinct from both care homes (where accommodation and care are bundled) and general needs housing (where no support is provided). Around 60,000 people in England currently live in mental health supported accommodation. — GOV.UK National Statement of Expectations
For someone living with a mental health condition, the place they live in is not a backdrop to recovery — it is recovery. A clean, safe, well-maintained home reduces stress. A responsive landlord restores trust. Tidy gardens and clean windows restore dignity.
"Housing should be recognised as a health intervention by mental health services. Access to stable housing has been shown to reduce the costs of hospital stays for people who would otherwise require inpatient care."
— NHS Confederation
The evidence is hard to ignore: a recent Royal College of Psychiatrists and Look Ahead report found that 121,695 hospital bed days were lost in England in 2024/25 alone because supported housing wasn't available — costing mental health services £102 million.
That's why Diverse Supported Accommodation CIC invests where most providers don't — in our own in-house maintenance team, in 24/7 emergency response, and in technology that proves every issue is tracked and resolved. We focus on the home itself, and partner only with vetted support companies to deliver care within our properties.
Most supported accommodation in the UK is sub-let, sub-contracted, and slow to respond. We've built our service the other way around.
Our own staff carry out repairs. No subcontractors, no waiting for a third-party schedule. Accountable, consistent, and trained to our standards.
When something goes wrong out of hours, we respond. Boiler failure, water leak, security issue — fixed when it happens, not the next working day.
Every repair is logged, tracked, and resolved through Fixflo, the platform used by professional landlords. Residents report directly. Commissioners can audit.
Gardening and window cleaning are part of the standard offer, not an extra. Because a home that's cared for on the outside feels cared for on the inside.
Diverse Supported Accommodation CIC is a housing provider. The day-to-day support delivered within our homes comes from carefully selected, vetted support companies who operate inside our facilities.
This separation of accommodation from support is the model recognised by the Local Government Association in its guidance to commissioners — and is the structure most commonly used in modern supported housing across the UK.
Every support provider working in our properties is checked against our standards before they're approved — and held to those standards while they're with us. That way each part of the offer is delivered by people who do it best: we provide exceptional housing, and our partners provide exceptional support.
We work with adults aged 18 to 65 with mental health needs. Our accommodation is available across all areas of London, giving commissioners and referrers flexibility on placement location.
