Being homeless is a scary experience for anyone but you don’t need to face it alone. If you are in a housing crisis talk to Housing Aid at Loxley House about your options. They can advise you and if necessary refer you to Open Homes. We will find a safe place to stay with a volunteers host (Nightstop)
Our Support Worker will speak to Housing aid and to other agencies who may be involved. There is a 24 hour on-call number to reach them in an emergency. They will also signpost you towards other help that is available.
