Supported Lodgings Opportunity

Become a Residential Support Host

Are you aware that you can assist a young individual while maintaining your job and receive a financial allowance of £268 per week?

The Supported Lodgings initiative by Stockport Council is seeking individuals aged 25 and above, residing in Stockport and nearby areas, who have an available room and wish to provide support to a vulnerable young person aged between 16 and 17, at risk of homelessness, or care leavers aged between 18 and 21, as well as unaccompanied asylum-seeking youths. Candidates should possess resilience, empathy, and tolerance, and be capable of offering warm, supportive, safe, and welcoming accommodation.

The primary goal of the Supported Lodgings initiative is to serve as a transitional phase towards independence. As a Residential Support Host, you will aid young individuals in acquiring essential life skills such as budgeting, cooking, cleaning, and maintaining personal safety and health, which will empower them to lead successful independent lives in preparation for their own living arrangements.

Regular support will be provided to the Residential Support Hosts, and each young person will have access to assistance from a social worker or a Leaving Care worker throughout their stay.

It is important to note that you are not required to assume guardianship over the young person; rather, your role is to offer support and guidance within a secure environment.

Stockport Council values diversity and encourages inquiries from adults aged 25 and over, regardless of background, culture, faith, gender, or sexuality.

We seek ordinary individuals willing to take on an extraordinary role.

The successful candidate's appointment will be contingent upon satisfactory pre-employment clearances, including a Disclosure and Barring Service check.
