Project Description

The project operates across Conwy and Denbighshire, working with Service Users who will be stable and/or in treatment or recently released from prison and engaged in relapse prevention work with the Substance Misuse Service. The service provides residential support aimed at meeting individuals’ needs, promoting independence and leading to a sustainable move-on.

Promoting Personal and Community Safety

Purpose of Role

To coordinate and provide residential and floating support that enables and empowers Service Users to address housing and/or personal difficulties, build their skills and confidence, and ultimately improve their ability to maintain their current or future accommodation.

It will ‘do with’ rather than ‘do for’ to enable people to improve their control, understanding, and involvement in dealing with the issues that affect them, and assist Service Users to achieve their preferred outcomes. In addition, to meet the housing management needs of the project ensuring the delivery of a safe, secure and effective service.
