We are working to improve accommodation options for single homeless people in Plymouth. We have created access to several short-term shared houses, and work with people to help them find some stability, and help them to move on after 3-6 months to sustainable, long-term accommodation.

As part of this service, we are also able to offer Starter Packs to clients in need as they take on their tenancies: packs of essential items for those who need it the most, for example, cutlery, crockery, bedding and bed linen. People who need these packs have nothing - they may be fleeing domestic violence, leaving care or supported accommodation, or have lost their belongings through becoming homeless.

Our Plymouth Renting Access Service (PRSS) offers people support to secure private rented accommodation, via referrals from Plymouth City Council.

We assess the client's housing needs, their tenancy history, references and affordability, and aim to help them secure appropriate accommodation. For people needing private rented accommodation, we can potentially offer support and deposit guarantees to help set up tenancies. Our PRAS Service Leaflet has further information.

For Landlords, we can offer tenants who are ready to live independently, tenancy related support including move-in and move-out property inspections with digital photos, help resolving Housing Benefit related issues and more.
