Supported Housing

A project for Independent living; offering intensive support to vulnerable young people aged 16-24.
Young people referred to the project must be single and homeless or at risk and in need of support in maintaining their first tenancy.

We offer an individually tailored package of support which includes help with budgeting, form filling,introduction to the local neighbourhood facilities and services, how to be a good neighbour and live independently successfully in the community.

The Project provides 8, 1 bedroomed self contained furnished flats in the Openshaw area. The programme consists of a two year tenancy with 'move on' options that will give the young people realistic and positive opportunities for their future.

We operate a waiting list and referrals can be made by any agency or organisation that works with a young
person who wants to be referred onto the project. A referral form will need to be completed for each applicant.

The Project is funded by MCC Supporting People and has recently been awarded a 2 year steady state contract.
We are accredited by Manchester City Council good landlord.
