Common Room (360G-landaid-20171816)

£50,000

10 emergency one-bed flats for young people who are homeless and in severe need. The build will include a mix of both refurbishment and new build attached to the current 242 premises to create a new multipurpose space (property extension). The space will be used by our young people to develop their independent living skills. This would support the young people who reside in the accommodation, and those in the future, a space to study, apply for jobs, and learn the skills to share a communal space. The young people will also participate in the planning, design and build. Promoting a sense of ownership, team building, and improving social development.
