Coastline Housing joined forces with housing associations up and down the country to celebrate Starts at Home Day 2023 at the start of September.
Events took place at Chi Winder, our purpose-built Homeless Centre, at our accommodation for homeless families in Redruth and at our Extra Care Scheme Miners Court.
A large number of guests came to have a look around the buildings and see the sorts of services on offer. They also joined us in eating some delicious food and taking part in some of the games and entertainment on offer.
Guests talked to residents and clients about how important these support services are and the difference they have made to their lives.
Starts at Home Day is held each year by the National Housing Federation to celebrate supported housing and the impact it has on thousands of lives day in, day out.
It's a day to shine a light on all the work done to provide care and support, help people live independent and happy lives and build thriving communities.
It was also a chance for housing associations to call on all political parties to support more investment for supported housing in the future.
Louise Beard, Deputy CEO at Coastline Housing, explains: "Supported housing offers a safe space providing stability and security to enable the enjoyment of living the best life."
