1. Group living provisions come in various different formats, with a not ‘one size fits all’ approach as with more traditional services offered in the past. The introduction of the 1990 NHS and community care act meant a more community based approach was adopted. With the introduction of person centred care, supporting the independence and autonomy of the individual has become best practice.

Wolf Wolfensberger, formulated an analysis of human relationships and human services, this was called Social role valorisation (SVR): this was the successor to and earlier principle of Normalisation. The theory is widely based on the idea that society often tends to identify groups of people as fundamentally ‘different’ and of less value than everyone else.

The normalisation principle means making patterns of life and everyday living available to those with disabilities which are as close to the regular circumstances and ways of life.

* Home and family
* Friendship
* Dignity, respect and acceptance
* A sense of belonging
* Opportunities to participate
* A good standard of living
