Our services in the East Riding are managed by our Project Manager Nick Tilney. The Hosts and Young People in Supported Lodgings placements are supported by Caroline Andrews and young people using the Homeless Prevention Service are supported by Chloe Lamb, though there can be some crossover with staff in this area.

Currently, funding for young people aged 18+ is mostly provided by a grant from The National Lottery Fund. This enables us to support young people who are homeless, or who are living in precarious housing situations, with a more intensive package of support than the local authority housing teams are able to offer. We not only help young people to find and apply for accommodation, we can also support them to develop a budget and set up bill payments, manage and complete benefit claims, source furniture, advocate with landlords and other agencies and complete ongoing tenancy health checks.

Those aged 16 and 17 are also eligible for our Resettlement Service but any accommodation support is funded through Children’s Social Care.
