Help with accommodation

The local authority must provide, where necessary, suitable accommodation.1Reg 14 SAYPLC(S) Regs When considering what is suitable, the local authority should, as far as it is reasonably practicable, take into account your views, your health, any needs you have arising from disability, and your education, training and employment needs.2Reg 14 SAYPLC(S) Regs Guidance suggests that you should not be placed in unsuitable bed and breakfast or hostel accommodation, and that factors such as being close to support networks should be taken into account.3Scottish government guidance, Supporting Young People Leaving Care in Scotland, 2004, para 9.3
