Our supported living programme making It easier to succeed

This programme leaves no stone unturned making that transitional period easier we support young people living in a variety of accommodations within the community.  On release from prison the programmes are almost identical the only difference being is if a curfew is imposed.

If from prison we start working with the young person four months before release. Without the necessary skills or the correct support things can and will quickly spiral out of control.

"I've always wanted to work in a kitchen as a chef and now I know I can make it happen"

Effective leisure time we all know idle time can be dangerous for some young people.       

We encourage our service users to participate in groups activity or taking up a hobby.

Money management how to spread the cost of living to ensure they have sufficient funds to cover bills, food, shopping and travelling expenses.

Mediation is built around the young person providing a safe space to have their views heard without interruption and helps prevent a fractured situation escalating.  

The state of the economy does not help on an already sensitive situation where everybody is having to make sacrifices this coupled with a all-ready dysfunctional household where there may be low employment, lack of privacy and a parent having problems dealing with their own issues sometime home is the last place they would want to be.

We prepare our young people and their families to be better equipped with the right tools to take on and meet those challenges.
