The First Key Homes Service works with young people aged 16 - 18 referred by Manchester City Council.
We provide them with a safe home, either in a shared house with two other young people, or in a single person flat.

Our team of housing support workers work alongside the young people, intensively supporting them around budgeting, paying bills, accessing education, employment, and training. All with the ultimate aim to progress their development towards independent living and to create cycles of community change.

We developed an independence booklet that each of our young people work through during their time with us. It is tailored around individual needs, aspirations, and risks, and a contains a mixture of interventions and activities to support the young person’s development.

We at First Key Homes are dedicated to creating a welcoming community atmosphere in our service, we believe that the key to this is bringing the young people together to take part in enrichment activities such as trips, sports, and events.

We were super proud of everyone involved in our recent 7 aside football tournament. Football, food and fun all in aid of raising awareness about Hate Crime. We would like to thank everyone who helped make this event happen. Manchester City Council Refugee Council AKT Manchester Football Association Show Racism the Red Card
