In Shared Lives, a young person or adult who needs social care support is matched with a Shared Lives carer, by their local Shared Lives scheme. They’re matched on personality, lifestyle and whether they get on and want to be together – as well as supporting the person’s social care needs. Together, they share family and community life. People can either move in to live with the Shared Lives carer and their family, or visit for day support or overnight breaks. https://sharedlivesplus.org.uk/start-your-shared-life/what-is-shared-lives/
