Bromley, United Kingdom Hestia Housing Support Full time

We are Hestia. We make a difference. 

At Hestia, we are guided by our core values and are dedicated to fostering an equitable, diverse, and inclusive organisation. We provide a range of services, including Domestic Abuse support, Modern Slavery assistance, Mental Health & Complex Needs care, and Criminal Justice. Our mission is to empower individuals to rebuild their lives and achieve independence.

The service you will work in....

Bromley tenancy support service provides tenancy related support to residents of Bromley who need support in maintaining their tenancies or are at risk of losing it. The service works with singles, couples and families who find themselves in this situation and who need assistance in managing their tenancies. The promotion of independence is paramount in this service and this is achieved through key working and support planning where the service users themselves are in charge of identifying goals and outcomes that they want to achieve with some assistance for the service.

Typically service users will reside in Bromley but occasionally referrals are received from residents who reside outside of the borough having been placed in temporary accommodation by Bromley council.

Those supported by the service may have other issues not directly linked to tenancy management but which have a significant impact of how well a service user manages their lives and tenancy. Therefore the service will support and signpost service users to drug and alcohol services, mental health and GP services, as well as specialist financial support.

A day in this role looks like....

As a Floating Support Worker at Hestia, you will play a crucial role in our Criminal Justice Service . Your contributions will directly influence the lives of our service users, guiding them towards a path of empowerment and independence.

  • To formulate, implement and review personalised, client focused support plans with service users and other professionals as needed.
