Understanding Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA)

The Housing Hub is running free workshops about Specialist Disability Accommodation. These workshops are for people with disability and their families. You will find out about Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA). You will learn how to work out if SDA is right for you and hear from people with disability who have experience in finding the right home for them.

The workshop is free to attend.

We will cover:

• What Specialist Disability Accomodation is
• What the different design categories and building types are
• How you apply for SDA and what evidence is needed
• Support models

The workshop is interactive and we encourage you to ask as many questions as you like!

Workshop details

It is 2.5 hours long. There will be two short breaks.

What happens before the workshop

We will send you a workbook to help you to think about what you need in a home. There will be some videos to watch and some activities to do. Please note we will contact you before the workshop to ask about your support needs and where you are on your housing journey.
