Findings and recommendations are presented from the investigation into the care and treatment of residents of a Supported Landlord Scheme. 'Supported Landlord Schemes' are forms of housing for people who need some extra help and support. The report found that it is a matter of major concern that vulnerable people with learning disabilities were living: in an unregistered service, in the care of people who were not approved providers and without proper care management in a place where there was a known culture of restriction and punishment.
