I've been in supported accomodation but not quite the same as what you have been offered.
What sort of things would you like to find out about this accomodation? I guess important things might be -

- Rules they have there (ie, can you go out on your own/visitors/curfews)
- What would they expect from you? (They might not expect anything)
- Daily routine there (ie, is there therapy/group meetings/just free to do what you like)
- Meal times (Do you buy your own food or do they provide meals?)
- Amount of support you can expect from the staff
- Finances (Will you need to apply for housing benefit, etc?)

Maybe it would help you to write any questions you think of on a piece of paper so you can refer to that in the meeting,
good luck,
