Our Aim
When someone is facing challenging times we are a friend who is welcoming and helpful
Praxis Service own 6 houses all together. 1 house being the women and children’s project and the other 5 houses are supported accommodation for single adults.
Praxis will interview each resident before they are offered a space. Every resident can stay with Praxis Service for up to 2 years. Within this time the individual will be allocated a key worker who they will work alongside and be supported in daily activities. Each resident can choose the amount of support they receive. Praxis Service offer different levels of support from low to high whether this is daily or weekly. Also, each resident will be supported to bid for an appropriate tenancy of their own. Praxis will give 6 weeks floating support once the resident is in their own independent property.
