Supported Housing

• Families in Darlington are spending longer than ever in temporary accommodation—over 9,600 nights in 2023/24, compared to just 1,486 before Covid. The number is rising sharply, bringing huge financial costs and devastating social impacts. For children, the instability can cause lasting harm to health, wellbeing, and education.
• Forever Homes provides a better answer. We secure long-term homes in communities close to schools and amenities, giving families the stability they need to rebuild their lives.
• Each tenancy begins with a year of wraparound support—helping families settle, access services, and gain independence. After that year, the tenancy becomes permanent. Families stay in their home for good, free from the insecurity of temporary housing.

Forever Homes: building stability, restoring dignity, changing futures.
