Working for a better future

New Start provides supported homes for vulnerable adults that are good quality and well maintained.

The organisation believes that once a vulnerable individual is accommodated in safe, stable housing then the process of re-building their life can truly begin.

New Starts organisational beliefs centre on and around the rights of the individual:

To assist people with this process the organisation takes a ‘person centred approach’ to all the projects it facilitates, reflecting in every aspect of support delivered throughout the service.

Service users are supported with the positive development of their daily life, to ensure they sustain their tenancy and avoid the risk of re-occurring homelessness. Deeply rooted in this process is encouragement towards independence and confidence building to promote community inclusion and positive social development.

Accommodation:

New Starts accommodation is integrated into residential areas, and all service users are carefully assessed to ensure housing provided will be suitable to match the level of support they require.

People who access New Start want the chance to:

• secure good quality housing,
• be good neighbours
• And be respected as members of the community.

With the support New Start offer this is 100% achievable.
