Brolly for Supported Living

It's their tenancy. Their choices.
Their lives.

Support delivered alongside people, protecting tenancy, honouring choice, evidencing the journey to independence.

The reality of supported living

The five pressures every
service manager carries.

Supported living asks more of providers than residential or dom care: enable independence and prove you did. Brolly is built around what that actually looks like in practice.

1:1 support delivered, fully
Commissioned hours that actually happened.

A tenant has 35 hours of 1:1 commissioned. Did they get them? Were they meaningful? When the council reviews the package, the answer needs to be in evidence, not in someone's memory. Underdelivery loses contracts. Over-claiming loses trust.

The tenancy stays a tenancy
Bills paid. Rent in. Repairs reported. Neighbour kept calm.

Supporting someone to hold a tenancy means supporting them with utilities, bills, repairs, post, finances, and the housing officer's last warning letter. Lose the tenancy and the placement collapses. None of this lives naturally in a "care plan".

Goals that mean something
Set them. Work them. Evidence them. Celebrate them.

Take the bus alone. Cook a meal from scratch. Hold down a job. Get into college. The goal-setting form gets filled in at review. Then it sits in a folder until next review. Progress happens in the meantime, invisibly, undocumented, unrewarded.

Tenant voice, captured properly
"Nothing about me, without me."

Tenants want to lead their own reviews, see their own care plans, and have a say in who supports them. Easy-read documents, accessible communication, capacity-aware consent. The system has to bend toward the tenant, not the other way around.

Right Support, Right Care, Right Culture
CQC's bar for SL is higher. Your evidence has to be too.

Inspectors don't just want to see safe care. They want to see a culture that builds independence, choice and community connection. Restrictive practice tracked. Positive behaviour support evidenced. Activities that aren't institutional. The standard is right, and proving you meet it is the work.

Sounds familiar? We hear it from every supported living service manager. Brolly handles every one of these pressures, quietly, in the background, every tenancy, every commissioned hour, every record.

How Brolly answers

A specific answer for each pressure.

No abstract promises. Here's what Brolly does, every shift, in a supported living service.

01
1:1 hours delivery
Commissioned-hour tracking with shift-by-shift verification

Every commissioned hour mapped to its delivery, start and end captured, support worker identified, activity logged. Underdelivery flagged early so it can be made up. Council reviews see verified delivery, not estimates.

What changes

Contract renewals built on evidence. Disputes resolved quickly. Tenants get the hours they're entitled to, and the service gets paid for what it delivered.

02
Tenancy support
A dedicated tenancy record alongside the support plan

Rent payments, utilities, benefits reviews, repairs raised, post handled, neighbour incidents, all captured in a tenancy log that runs parallel to the care record. Housing officer queries answered with evidence, not memory.

What changes

Tenancies don't fail. Eviction risks spotted weeks early. The housing relationship moves from defensive to collaborative.

03
Goals that move
Outcomes-led goal tracking, woven into daily notes

Goals broken into small, observable steps. Support workers tag daily notes against the goals they touch. Progress charts itself, visible to the tenant, the team, the family, the social worker. Celebrating wins becomes routine, not annual.

What changes

Independence becomes measurable. Reviews show real movement. Tenants see their own progress and so do funders.

04
Tenant voice
Easy-read views, tenant logins, AI Survey check-ins

Tenants see their own plan, their own goals, their own week, in language and format that works for them. Brolly's AI Survey checks in by phone in friendly conversation, gathering preferences and concerns the tenant might not raise in a formal review.

What changes

Tenants lead their own reviews. Concerns surface early. The "voice of the person" stops being a tickbox and starts being a steady signal.

05
Right Support evidence
Records mapped to the three pillars and the SAF

Restrictive practice logged with rationale and review. Positive behaviour support documented as it happens. Community activities, choice records, advocacy contact, all tagged to the quality statement they evidence. Inspection prep becomes export, not excavation.

What changes

Outstanding ratings stop relying on heroics. The culture shows up in the evidence because the evidence is captured as the culture happens.

A week inside Brolly

From Monday's goal to Friday's win.

A week with Sam, who's working toward catching the bus to college alone.

Monday · Plan

Sam reviews this week's goals on his easy-read dashboard. Three steps toward the bus journey: read the timetable, count the change, walk to the stop. Support worker tags Monday's session against step one.

Wednesday · Practice

Walk to the bus stop together. Sam reads the timetable. Voice note from the support worker captures Sam's confidence growing. Tagged to step two. Manager sees the progress in the morning summary.

Friday · The win

Sam gets the bus alone. Support worker meets him at college. Photo and short video logged with consent. Goal updated. Family notified through the portal. The achievement lives in the record forever.

Review · The evidence

At the next social worker review, Sam shows his own progress. Twelve weeks of evidence, mapped to outcomes. The funder sees independence growing. The package keeps moving in the right direction.
