About the project

Adferiad are working with BCBC and Partners to deliver Housing First (H1st) through community-based support for individuals with complex needs across the County Borough of Bridgend.

Housing First was first introduced in Bridgend in 2019 and began with Adferiad Recovery in 2022. Housing First is a unique approach aimed at helping to tackle homelessness by supporting people with complex and multiple needs into settled and stable homes.

The support is to focus on each person’s strengths and aspirations to reduce harm, achieve a tenancy and sustain their home and independence in their community.

Eligibility / Referral Process

Entrenched Rough Sleepers, or those with a history of trouble of sustaining a tenancy.

Referrals for the service are via BCBC. However, we are happy to discuss potential individuals to support prior to completion of council request for assistance.
