West Bromwich & District YMCA have set up a Supported Lodging Scheme to operate across the borough of Sandwell for young people aged 16-17 years olds.
The project provides a more appropriate accommodation route for vulnerable young people - which the local authority has a statutory duty to house - than B&B accommodation or some hostel type provision. Initially a pilot project of 15 bed spaces, this will be developed and evaluated over a 2 year period. If successful the scheme may be further expanded.
The YMCA has several years experience running similar schemes in various parts of the UK. This experience will enable a Sandwell model to be established on a robust foundation.
If you are 16 or 17 year olds and have a housing need then please do get in touch with Nathan using the details above.
