Homelessness
 |
Over the past five years there's been an increase in the number of young people under 25, and particularly those under 17, who find themselves homeless.
It's not hard to find yourself homeless. Everyone has a different story - maybe you're leaving care or custody, have a mental or physical health problem, have issues around drug and alcohol misuse, have experienced relationship or family breakdowns or are escaping an abusive relationship. Tackling homelessness is not just about putting a roof over someone’s head.
A support agency can help you get back on your feet again. If you are homeless you can get help to gain and improve life skills such as basic numeracy and literacy, budgeting, cooking, nutrition, social skills, DIY and health and safety awareness. Some support agencies also offer group information sessions on drug and alcohol awareness, anger management and sexual health. You might even get IT and employment training.
Homelessness agencies, like Framework in Nottinghamshire, offer different kinds of accommodation so that residents can access the best kind of housing for them. They also offer different levels of support and will help you feel safe and secure. Most importantly they'll help you to take control of your life again.
Thanks to Framework in Nottingham for providing us with this information.
