Supported Tenancies Service - Floating Support Scheme
New Options Housing Supported Tenancies Service is an accommodation-based project providing support for people living within both shared and self contained properties.
The service offers medium to long-term housing options for vulnerable individuals who often have experience of multiple tenancy breakdowns. Service users who access this project usually have a history of homelessness and may have encountered frequent episodes of sleeping rough. Some struggle with the complexities of living with mental illness; whilst others may experience difficulties relating to long-term alcohol dependency, or a history of offending. It is clear that whatever their issue(s) may be, these people require a stable environment within which they can be supported as they address these challenges at a realistic pace.
Quality Housing
Too often vulnerable members of society are forced to live in sub standard housing with poor facilities and with little or no prospect of this ever changing. Clean and freshly decorated rooms with properly functioning facilities such a hot shower, and kitchen areas are standard in all of our properties. Regular visits by our wardens also ensures that these standards are maintained and that our service users are taught how to undertake small maintenance tasks themselves.
