Adult Offenders

We offer support to ex-offenders in Harrogate and the surrounding areas offering intensive resettlement and accommodation for offenders who are assessed as being a greater risk to the community. We work in partnership with the Probation Service providing offenders with the foundations to help them reduce their offending and the wider impact this has on the community.

Young People

In partnership with Leeds Federated Housing Association and Harrogate Borough Council, Foundation manage seven units of quality supported housing for lone parents. This scheme is the only one of its kind in North Yorkshire and is designated for young people aged 16-25. The young parents are based in a single building which contains a resource room and a backyard, which has play facilities for children.

Homeless Prevention

Foundation is working in partnership with Harrogate Safer Communities to provide a Programme of pre-tenancy workshops. The workshops are targeted particularly at people, who are not only homeless or have recently been given a tenancy, but who also have offending and/or substance misuse issues. The aim of the project is to assist in the reduction of crime in Harrogate by improving the success rate of new tenancies for those who are more likely to contribute to offending in Harrogate and District.

Domestic Abuse

We are a partner in a multi agency initiative which supports victims of domestic abuse whilst remaining in their own homes and at the same time challenging the perpetrators and their behaviour.   Encompassing ten agencies from the voluntary and statutory sector that work together to ensure positive intervention to victims of domestic abuse. We offer support to perpetrators charged with domestic abuse, addressing tenancy issues and finding suitable accommodation away from the victims. Our housing support workers address behavioural beliefs as part of a structured support plan.
