Our Residents

Our Residents are people who have been through difficult times and are ready to make a change for the better. Residents might be ex-armed forces personnel, formerly homeless or unemployed people or ex-offenders. We believe that everyone deserves a second chance, and we don’t discriminate as long as Residents are ready and willing to take the support we offer them and work their way back to independent living.

By offering them comfortable accommodation, we’re able to give them the time and space they need to heal and reassess their lives. And, by undertaking the training, voluntary placements and work experience opportunities that we provide, Residents are able to build up their skills and self-confidence, ready for the next step on their journey.

Take a look at some of our Residents, past and present…
