Q: What is supporting people?

A: Supporting People is a national Government programme that is changing the way that sheltered housing and supported housing services are funded. Decisions about funding sheltered housing and supported housing services are made by a partnership of local bodies. The partnership also makes sure that support services in Northamptonshire are good quality, are where people need them, and provide the support that people need and want. For more information use the contact details below or visit the supporting people webpage.

Q: What is a property search?

A: It is important to have a search carried out when buying a property as it is designed to protect prospective purchasers. A search consists of 95 questions covering areas such as development plans, enforcement notices, planning decisions, drainage, noise abatement, mineral consultation areas, and of course, the all important highway enquiries. For more information use the contact details below or visit the property search webpage.
