Evening and weekend support

This is an in-house service which provides evening and weekend support to women in our shared housing scheme.

For some women, they may be moving into a house in an area they don’t know.

The worker will help by introducing her to the other house residents, and show her round the house and the local area shops, GP surgery, chemist etc. Some women find it hard to get out of the house at the weekends.

The worker will offer emotional support which helps combat the isolation and also provide practical support including shopping and going for walks. She will also assist women through crises which inevitably sometimes happen out of hours.
