Project Description

The project operates Swansea working with women who have substance misuse issues and other complex needs, such as domestic abuse. The service provides residential support with the aim of meeting individuals' needs, which promote independence and lead to a sustainable move-on. The project also provides housing related support within people's homes or in the community, with the aim of preventing homelessness and increasing independence.

Purpose of Role

To provide residential and floating support that enables and empowers Service Users to address housing and/or personal difficulties, build their skills and confidence, and ultimately improve their ability to maintain their future or current accommodation. The support will not create or increase dependence. It will 'do with' rather than 'do for', so it's likely that support will involve accompanying Service Users initially, in order to familiarise them with an activity or appointment. Support will help people improve their control, understanding and involvement in dealing with the issues that affect them, and assist Service Users to achieve their preferred outcomes. In addition, to assist with the housing management needs of the project ensuring the delivery of a safe, secure and effective service.
