Shared Lives is a very successful scheme, which has run across Scotland and the UK for many years. Shetland Community Connections are looking to provide this choice for individuals and unpaid carers here in Shetland and would greatly value your thoughts.

The Shetland Shared Lives would be concentrating on day support and short breaks respite initially.

They would also appreciate you answering this two-question survey:
