Hounslow Council


Adult placement service

What is an adult placement?

In an adult placement, you share your carer's home in your local community.  The adult placement carer gives you support and you will share daily life with them.

There can be different types of placement, offering a home, a short break (respite) or support with an activity.

Who is it for?

It is for adults aged 18 years and over who live in the London Borough of Hounslow.

Adult placement carers will help you to:

  • look after yourself

  • keep healthy and active

  • learn new skills

  • meet people

  • enjoy hobbies and support you with activities

  • manage your money

  • share domestic tasks like cooking and cleaning

How do I access an adult placement?

We are working in partnership with the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames who are managing the adult placement scheme. Contact one of their care managers, they will talk to you and see if they can help you.

You can contact them on 020 8487 5315 or contact Hounslow's Community Team for Learning Disability on 020 8583 3529.
