Working in a psychologically informed way we support people to be confident, empowered and independent.

Our long-term housing provides a permanent home for people with complex and enduring mental ill health.

All our services are delivered using our bespoke psychological model, you can find out more about our approach here.

Funding

Our support services are funded primarily through the Housing Support Grant or through Health Board funding.  In our supported housing services, service user are responsible for their accommodation costs and are usually able to claim Housing Benefit towards these.

All of our staff are highly trained and registered with Social Care Wales. We are registered with CIW (Care Inspectorate Wales) to provide domiciliary care which allows us to provide any care services that are needed and this is often around support for managing medication.
