About the Project
The MHLS supports individuals with mental health and / or substance use issues who are currently homeless, or at risk of being homeless. They may be living in temporary accommodation or have just transitioned into permanent accommodation. Our aim is to support individuals with the above conditions to secure permanent accommodation and live independently, breaking the cycle of homelessness and vulnerability.
As a service, we work alongside Flintshire County Council Housing Options Team and Housing Support Officers.
Who do we support?
The primary needs of our clients are ongoing or co-occurring mental health and / or substance use. The support offered is primarily based within the Flintshire Community temporary accommodation properties or at the homes of our clients who have secured permanent accommodation.
How do we do it?
We provide a holistic, person-centred service that aspires to enable the individual to lead an independent life. We provide housing and wellbeing-related support, such as crisis interventions, brief interventions, and skills building. We work in partnership with other projects within Adferiad, as well as statutory and third-sector services in the Flintshire community.
