Who is the project for?
Who do we help?
Young single homeless women aged 16-30 with support needs. Local connection necessary (exceptional circumstances can be discussed).
Who we cannot help
We aim to read each referral and interview to hear the service users narrative around needing our service. From here we balance the support needs of service user against the needs of other residents in the project. This ensures we can keep the project safe, settled and we can meet the needs of all.
