Men's Referrals

Men

We work with single, homeless people who are un-employed, ex-offenders and those with a history of drug and/or alcohol addiction. Our aim is to break the cycle of ‘No home, no job!’’ by providing accommodation and one to one support.

Support

We provide one-to-one and group support to help residents increase their employability skills with:

  • Short term accommodation
  • Training and volunteering opportunities
  • Support to gain employment & pathways to more permanent accommodation
  • Support in rebuilding their self-confidence and life skills.
  • Support moving on from traumatic past experiences

We also work with partner organisations to ensure that more specialist support is provided, including counselling, health care services and improving life skills.

Accommodation

Single room in a hostel setting with shared facilities. A cooked evening meal, facilities for making a packed lunch and a self-service breakfast with cereal, bread etc. are provided free of charge to every resident.

There are shared use kitchens with facilities to re-heat and make snacks, however, it should be noted that residents are not allowed to cook a full meal for themselves.

There are free laundry facilities available. Free Wifi is also available at all our premises.
