    Hi Gillian and welcome

    Have you tried the CAB ?
    It is worth ringing the Scope help line for quicker assistance

    Hi @Gillian63,

    If you're not already in touch with Adult Social Care, I think they would be the first people to talk to. Does your nephew have a social worker? If so, contact them directly. Your nephew will need help to find supported housing in a different area and a social worker is best placed to help. 

    If that doesn't help come back and let me know and we can look at other options.

    Best wishes
    Debbie
