About the accommodation:

One Foot Forward is a hostel, which is staffed 24-hours a day.  The service is split in to two types of service.  There are 7 direct access spaces which means that you can refer yourself in an emergency and stay for up to 28 days.  There are also 13 short stay spaces which you can be referred to after staying in direct access if you need a high level of support.  You can stay in this part of the service for up to 6 months.

The accommodation includes 16 fully furnished bedrooms; 4 of these bedrooms provide shared accommodation.  The communal areas include two bathrooms, a dining room and a lounge.

Breakfast and an evening meal are provided daily with a cooked breakfast served at the weekends.

We don’t just provide somewhere safe to live.  We aim to enable young people to take control of their own lives and move towards more independent living.  This is achieved through weekly one-to-one sessions with support workers and less formal activities.  You can find out more about our approach in Beyond Accommodation.
