<strong>Letitia</strong> <strong>House</strong><br />

<strong>Letitia</strong> <strong>House</strong> is a supported<br />

housing project designed to support<br />

individuals in drug treatment<br />

programmes.<br />

How we can help<br />

<strong>Letitia</strong> <strong>House</strong> is a safe and secure place<br />

to live with 24hr CCTV. It provides<br />

temporary accommodation in a safe,<br />

supportive environment which enables<br />

clients to make positive choices, access<br />

practical and emotional support, health<br />

care, financial advice and sign posting to<br />

external agencies.<br />

Our main aim is to reduce homelessness<br />

whilst working for the benefit of our clients<br />

and helping to place them into appropriate<br />

permanent accommodation. We work<br />

closely with agencies and services such<br />

as CRI, Fulcrum centre and Families First<br />

and together we work to provide a first<br />

class professional service at all times.<br />

Facilities and services<br />

each client to offer help, support<br />
