Social Care and Housing is a newly combined service which comprises the service areas of social services and housing.
The service includes children’s and adults’ social services, the strategic housing function of the Council and the functions associated with the Council as a landlord.
The main aims and objectives of the Service Area are:
-
That disadvantaged people in Torfaen will receive care and support of the highest quality, provided equitably, with priority afforded to those in greatest need.
-
To ensure that everyone living in Torfaen has access to a decent home, whether renting or buying, at a price they can afford and in a community in which they wish to live.
We will aim to treat EVERYONE with dignity, whilst exploring and increasing choice, protecting people, sharing and managing risks and offering independence.
We will continue our transformation of services aimed at improving the quality of life for local people.
