About Us
“Collaboration is essential in our sector.”
What We Do
The regulation of the Supported Accommodation sector (formerly semi-independent) by Ofsted created a clear need for providers to unite to collaborate, share knowledge, and access expert guidance. The Supported Accommodation Providers Association (SAPA) was established to meet this need.
We provide a platform where providers can learn from one another, benefit from industry-leading advice, and ensure their services remain compliant, effective, and sustainable.
Alongside representing our members, we also help them achieve significant cost savings through collective purchasing power. By negotiating exclusive discounts, we reduce expenses in key areas such as:
• Insurance
• Energy
• Health and Safety
• Legal advice
• Care management systems
SAPA exists to strengthen providers, raise standards across the sector, and support better outcomes for the young people who rely on supported accommodation.
Our Vision
All our members can provide exceptional support to young people in their care.
Our Mission
We strive for excellence and empower others to do the same.
