Supporting Women Across the Wakefield District to Rebuild Their Lives After Homelessness

Becoming tenancy ready and moving people into their own properties is our overarching aim. We work with the individual to design their own bespoke move on plan, which can include:-

• Getting tenancy ready, including debt management, budgeting and affordability.
• Registering with social housing providers, including VICO, Guinness and Together Housing. 
• Liaising with private landlords and helping to access rent in advance schemes to secure the property.

We recognise the importance of support to encourage individuals to make positive and lasting changes. Community Cabin help to increase a persons wellbeing by:-

• Building broken bridges between family and friends. 
• Community Cabin hold various monthly activities throughout the month to encourage social engagement. These include – cooking on a budget, games afternoons, monthly house get together’s. 
• We work alongside Central HEaRt CIC, a service dedicated to helping and supporting females who still continue to face systemic challenges in todays society. It’s important that the females we work with recognise their potential, working in partnership with Cetral HEaRT  provides them with the tools to help them succeed going forward. 

We have a digital hub in our office for staff to support our clients to move on and work towards their bespoke move on plan, which can include looking for housing, managing and maximining their benefits, online training, cv and application writing and to look for work when they are ready.
