Providers help the Supporting People (SP) Team to monitor and review their services. They are under obligation to comply with reporting requirements and to submit returns to the SP team. The data we collect is periodically sent to Communities and Localities of Government (CLG) so Central Government can see the value of the Supporting People programme and the outcomes for services.

Reporting Requirements (81KB - pdf help) is a document which summarises what data Providers need to send to SP and when, where and how to send it.  For more details go the below links:
