With your knowledge of welfare benefits you’ll help users to access grants/ charitable funding for white goods or other furnishings.

 

As well as this, you will be on the ball with activities related to the young person’s move e.g. arranging and facilitating pre-move- in meetings, joining the property inspection, liaising with the landlord where appropriate to negotiate move-in dates. You will also develop a system that matches young people across the contracted provision to facilitate house shares.

 

Continued support is the key!

 

As the guardian angel that secured their first home, you will continue to maintain contact with young people who have moved on at regular intervals to measure sustainability of move on.
