AnnotationIn this report, based on work supported by the Joseph Rowntree Foundation, the author describes eleven housing and support services that operate in different ways, and analyses their impact on people's access to security and choice. Service values rather than contract specifications and purchasing arrangements have most impact on people's daily lives. Ultimately, people's main safeguards lie in the mainstream of community services and resources.
