Supported Housing Providers

Supported housing projects are designed to help individuals bridge the gap between homelessness and independent living. Individuals are often offered the opportunity to develop life skills such as cooking, literacy or IT through training provided by experienced members of staff. This enables the transition to independent housing to take place smoothly and ensures the individual has the skills needed to sustain a tenancy. There are a variety of supported housing projects in Broxtowe and the surrounding areas. Please note that Supported Housing projects in the Nottingham City area will give priority to applicants from the City.
