Supported accommodation services for young people

Westside Support Services offers accommodation services to young people aged between 16 and 21 years.

The service is provided in the London boroughs of:

  • Hounslow
  • Hammersmith and Fulham
  • Ealing. 

The service provides semi-independent accommodation with support. We help young people understand what they need to do to sustain a tenancy.

Young people are encouraged to develop essential skills to maintain a home, budgeting and money management advice.
We encourage day-time activities through training, employment, education or volunteering in preparation to move into longer term accommodation. After young people have moved out, we provide a resettlement service to support their move.

Support is delivered through regular individual sessions with a dedicated support worker. Young people have an agreed support programme to help them achieve personal goals and aspirations.

We help young people move on to:

  • Shared accommodation
  • Private lettings
  • Local authority accommodation
  • Registered social landlords
  • Other housing providers. 

Young people can be referred to Westside through:

  • The Leaving Care Team
  • Homeless Person Unit.
