NHS South West London ICB (24 015 136a)
Statement Not upheld Mental health services 29-Mar-2026
Summary: Mr Y complained that the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames and NHS South West London Integrated Care Board did not pay the rent for his daughter’s specialist accommodation, despite it being part of her section 117 aftercare needs. We found fault with the Council. It managed the process of identifying and securing Miss X’s accommodation and should have included rent, and associated costs, in its costings and should have paid them from the outset. It should not have made the person liable for the rent and expected them to apply for benefits to fund it. This fault caused Mr Y avoidable stress and inconvenience. We have not found fault with the ICB as it did not make the decisions we found fault with.
