Through our partnerships we help to:

Target limited grant resources at those most in need and often least likely to apply for help.

Release housing, social services and health officers from detailed work supervision and problem solving, giving them more time to tackle other problems in their community.

Achieve cost savings by preventing moves to residential care.

Reduce the likelihood of accidents and illness resulting from poor housing conditions - thus reducing the expense of hospital visits.

Develop new models of funding repairs and improvements where grants are unavailable or restricted.  This could include local authority or private sector loans and equity release schemes.

Improve energy efficiency levels, in support of government policy; speed hospital discharge by ensuring patients return to safe, suitable conditions.

Help regenerate communities by improving housing conditions, fight crime and fear of crime through home security measures.
