In this episode Tanya Farley shares her experience of creating a supported living home for her son and two other young men. She explains how she took her vision and managed to get the local authority to use plots on a new build estate, that were allocated for affordable homes, to create a purpose built home. Tanya describes in detail some of the changes that were required to create the property and the impact developing a home that meets the needs of its tenants has had.
Tanya Farley co-founded the Autism a Hands on approach conference 22 years ago. Her motivation came from the fact that she is a parent of an autistic young man and wanted to know as much as possible about the condition and to connect with others who were interested. The objectives of the day have always been to provide quality information, raise awareness and hopefully to improve services. The Autism a Hands on Approach conference has proved extremely popular and has become firmly established in the autism calendar as an event where parents, carers, professionals and autistic individuals have a chance to meet up, listen and network.
Whether you're a professional, educator, caregiver, or ally, you'll leave with actionable tools and a deeper understanding to create more inclusive environments.

Lisa Brown became a property investor after a long nursing career. She initially developed heritage properties and then a chance encounter led her to discover supported living. She realized this was a powerful way to invest in property while creating homes for people with a support need. Lisa set about discovering why property investors struggle to let their properties to supported living providers and why providers struggle to find property to let. She has been educating people, raising awareness and working on solutions to this problem ever since. Lisa is the host of the Supported Living Property Podcast and YouTube channel and formed The Supported Living Property Facebook Group.
Lisa is founder of The Supported Living Property Network, a place for property investors and supported living providers to connect, build relationships and communicate about property they have available and/or need. Membership includes access to training courses, monthly training events and networking events and access to The Supported Living Property Network Conference.
