Housing and Hostels

Your local council is THE FIRST PLACE you need to contact about your housing needs. If you are homeless or being released from prison, and are eligible for help, the local authority will provide housing advice, assistance and support and will take reasonable steps to prevent you becoming homeless. You will need to arrange an appointment to visit most council offices.

Branches

We provide accommodation for single, homeless people aged 18 to 65 years for up to 18 months, in our 27-bed purpose-built hostel. We support, encourage, and facilitate the changes that people want to make in their lives through innovative support solutions designed to address the issue of homelessness effectively. Our goal is to help people move on to successful, sustainable, independent living. We take referrals from the London Borough of Waltham Forest. We do not accept self-referrals.
