We aim to improve the quality of people’s lives, by promoting independent living and encouraging people to build on their existing skills and capabilities. The services offer short term housing related support to enable people to move forward positively, gain or maintain a tenancy and live independently in the community.

These services are offered through two main routes/pathways: 

  • accommodation-based support, where temporary housing and support are delivered together, or 
  • floating support for those who need support to manage and maintain their accommodation if it is at risk. 

The support worker will work with people to develop a personalised support plan. They will help people to maintain their housing and help them be independent after the support ends.

We help people aged 16 or over.  Support is tailored to you, and may include:

  • Getting advice with housing or tenancy matters
  • Support to find somewhere safe to live
  • Setting up and maintaining your home
  • Maintaining independence, good health and wellbeing
  • Keeping safe within your home and local community
  • Applying for benefits
  • Budgeting effectively and managing debts
  • Participate in training/education and/or employment
  • Accessing other services to support you, such as substance misuse or mental health services
  • Connecting with family, social and/or community networks
