Hi Peter A

You're right, houses are going to be real expensive privately rented. But from your history of supported living I'm thinking that you'd be entitled to housing benefits if you did find somewhere privately rented, which would probably need to be more like a flat.........and maybe if the housing benefit didn't quite cover the rent there would be a possibility of you being able to top the rent up from other benefits.........
Depending on what benefits you'd be entitled to if you moved it may be possible if you could find the right place.
Worth checking out your options.........
