Non-Permanent Accommodation

At Claremont Living we manage over 240 units of supported accommodation across Birmingham and Dudley. These are shared houses, which all comply with HMO and other regulatory standards.

The accommodation provided is temporary and residents on average stay between 3 months and 2 years. The houses are fully furnished and regularly checked by staff. Most of our houses are specialised for a range of vulnerable and homeless people. For a full list of areas we cover please contact us.

Domestic Abuse

We provide housing support services for individuals who are transitioning from the criminal justice system. Our mission is to help our clients achieve a successful re-entry back into society through the provision of safe, secure and sustainable housing options.

We are proud to work with several prisons around the midlands, as well as the Offender Hub in Birmingham, managed by Spring Housing and funded by Birmingham City Council.

Referrals

We actively work with Birmingham and Solihull Woman's Aid. Our priority is to offer a supportive and safe space for women and their children who are fleeing domestic abuse. We provide accommodation and support services to help women rebuild their lives and regain independence.

Our staff are dedicated to providing a nurturing environment where women and children can begin to heal and grow. We offer a range of services including counselling, education and employment opportunities to support their journey towards a brighter future.

Offenders

All referrals to our Supported Accommodation must come through a recognised source and include a referral form and risk assessment. We do not accept self-referrals.

Each referral is considered carefully, and potential residents are, where possible, matched up with the appropriate housing which meets their needs. The mix in a house is vitally important.

All referrals come through the central referral point in the office. If you have a referral please contact Peter at referrals@claremontliving.co.uk for more information and a referral form.

Support

Support is delivered in line with Our Guidelines, which are outlined in the document “Guidance on how to deliver support in temporary accommodation”.

Support is regular and tailored to individual need. There is not a one size fits all approach. For more information about our support please contact us.

Foodbank Vouchers

We can access foodbank vouchers for residents. In addition, they can deliver food parcels from a local foodbank to individuals/houses.

Funding

We are funded through Housing Benefit and a personal service charge paid by the resident. We are looking for other ways to fund our work so if you can help in this area please contact us.
