Notes:
- Please interpret changes with caution as they may be due to changes in data collection methods rather than actual changes in client numbers. See notes to tables for details.
- Some clients might change accommodation type throughout the year. As a result, double counting may occur and the sum of the accommodation types will be greater than the net client total.
- Angus and Stirling have been unable to provide net totals, and therefore some element of double counting may be present.
- Scottish Borders are unable to provide a breakdown of accommodation type for clients in receipt of floating support. Estimates have been made based on the Scotland level proportions.
