Home and Living (SIL, ILO, STA)

Whether you’re after more independence, a flexible home setup, or just a short break, we’ve got options that will work for you.

Supported Independent Living (SIL)

Supported Independent Living (SIL) is for people with higher support needs who want to live more independently. It’s all about helping with daily tasks while encouraging growth and confidence. SIL usually includes support during the day and overnight in shared homes.


Key Features of SIL


  • Tailored Support: Help with personal care, cooking, cleaning, and daily routines, matched to your needs.
  • Skill Building: Support to boost everyday skills and grow confidence.
  • Shared Homes: Often involves living with others, offering connection and shared experiences.

Our SIL Services


At Golden Heart Services, we provide:



  • Individual Plans: Supports shaped around your goals and preferences.
  • Community Connection: Encouragement to take part in local events and build social links.


We work closely with you to create a home life that feels safe, comfortable, and right for you.

Individualised Living Options (ILO)

Individualised Living Options (ILO) are flexible supports that let you choose how and where you live. It’s designed around what matters to you—your routines, relationships, and lifestyle.

Our ILO Services


Golden Heart Services offers:


  • Personalised Design: Living arrangements shaped by your choices.
  • Flexible Models: Options like living alone with support, with a housemate, or with a host.
  • Ongoing Review: We adjust things as your needs or goals change.

ILO in a Nutshell


  1. Planning Stage: We explore what you want and map out the best options.
  2. Support in Place: We help set up the right people and supports to make it work.


Our goal? A home that fits your life—not the other way around.


Short Term Accommodation (STA)

Short Term Accommodation (STA) gives you a change of scene and pace. It’s short stays away from home.


Why STA?


  • Try New Things: Learn new skills or just enjoy a break in a new place.
  • Meet People: Connect with others in a safe, supported environment.
  • Support for Carers: A chance for carers to rest and recharge.


Whether it’s a short break or a fresh experience, our STA is about comfort, support, and making the most of every day.

Fun is a big part of Independence - Our Support will provide that, but you can also bring your own
