ARA - RP - Cost

Residential Rehabilitation Programme

Charging Policy And Information

ARA operates a charging policy as detailed below:

Funding must be secured - or likely to be secured - prior to assessment.

All charges apply from the 6th April 2010 and will be subject to an annual review.

Under the terms of 'Supporting People' ARA will be able to claim support costs and admit persons for treatment who hold, and wish to return to, an existing tenancy. We will not, however, be able to claim core rent costs in these instances and will therefore require commissioners to make up the shortfall.

ARA's core rent costs across the 3 residential properties will - for the 2010/2011 year - be £150.00.

A 2 tier pricing structure is, therefore, available as follows for the Residential 12-24 week programme:

· clients referred without a tenancy £595 per week
· clients referred with a tenancy £745 per week

Clients each receive £47.25 per week for their daily living allowance. This meets the individuals need for food and other personal expenses.

In addition, a weekly Bristol city-wide 'Rover travel pass' is issued to all clients on the Residential programme.

Money is also provided for each house to have a weekly house meal and purchase general household goods - i.e. washing and cleaning materials.

Savings, that accumulate from any balance remaining from Department of Work and Pensions (DWP) payments, are credited and recorded for each client individually.
