Our Foyers provide safe accommodation and personalised support for young people aged 16 to 25 who are homeless or at risk of homelessness.
Many of the young people who come to us have experienced significant challenges, including family breakdown, instability or difficult life experiences. Our role is to provide a safe place to live while working alongside them to build confidence, develop life skills and achieve their goals.
Each young person has their own accommodation, either a self-contained flat or a bedsit, giving them the privacy and security of a place to call home. Shared spaces provide opportunities to connect with others, learn new skills and become part of a supportive community.
What makes our Foyers different is the focus on opportunities and independence. Every young person receives tailored support to help them move forward in the areas that matter most to them. This may include:
Accessing education, training or employment
Managing money and sustaining a tenancy
Improving health and wellbeing
Building confidence and resilience
Developing practical independent living skills
Preparing to move on to longer-term accommodation
Our Support Officers work alongside young people to recognise their strengths, build on their ambitions and help them make positive plans for the future. Staff are available 24 hours a day to ensure residents feel safe at all times.
The aim of every Foyer placement is to help young people develop the skills, confidence and stability needed to live independently and thrive in their communities.
