Notice Title
HAC6137 East London Apartments
Notice Description
East London Apartments is a single homeless hostel which plays a key role in the delivery of the Councils Homelessness and Rough Sleeping Strategy 2024-2029 and it's six key priorities - (1) Working with people earlier to prevent them from becoming homeless and to reduce the use of Temporary Accommodation (2) Provide good quality accommodation for people who are at risk of homelessness or have already become homeless (3) Improve customer service and the individual's experience. (4) Making sure that people have access to the right support services. (5) To ensure that rough sleeping, when it occurs, is rare, short-lived, and unlikely to happen again. (6) Boost staff resilience and well-being. The service provides 31 one-bed flats in a supported housing setting on Hackney Road (Weavers Ward) and plays a key role in the wider single homeless hostel pathway. The service acts as a "final offer" for people who have otherwise exhausted other housing options, whether due to eviction for anti-social behavior, rent arrears or provider refusal due to presenting risks arising from the complexity of the service user's needs.
