Most people with learning difficulties have little choice about where they live; regardless of its appropriateness, residential care remains the dominant option. Using informal networking, Ken Simons set out to find and describe innovative examples of housing and support for people with learning difficulties. The result is a source book which explores a wide range of alternative approaches, focusing in particular on situations where people were able to live in their ownhomes.
