The Council has conducted a review of the
current housing and support available for adults with learning
disability in Hammersmith and Fulham. This strategy has been
developed in response to that review to improve the quality,
quantity and choice of housing with support services for people in
the borough. A crucial part of this modernisation programme is the
Council’s directly provided services both residential care,
community support, respite and day service provision. A review of
that housing provision has identified that Coverdale Road, a
council owned building from which the residential care service is
operated is not fit for purpose in terms of meeting the longer term
needs of its residents or future needs of the learning disability
population.
