Stopover is a short stay hostel for 14 young people who are experiencing major difficulties, in addition to their acute housing need.
Each young person has his or her own bedroom, communal kitchen and bathroom available on each floor. Most young people also take advantage sitting down with staff at least once a day to share breakfast or supper and a chat.
The Stopover service has been designed with the intentions of providing the high levels of support required by some of the most vulnerable young people amongst the homeless. For this reason, 'key work' system is employed and support plans are reviewed regularly with multi-agency involvement.
