For professionals

Working with social housing

We support housing providers with practical help for tenants, including repairs, adaptations and Making Space. Our work starts with the person and what they need at home.

Patient support with hoarding

The support social landlords ask us for most often is help with hoarding. Through Making Space, tenants get confidential, non-judgemental support and practical help, and they move at their own pace.

Nothing is removed without the tenant’s agreement. Change may take weeks or much longer, and our team works with the person as they decide what happens to their belongings.

Share the concerns

When you tell us about the person’s needs and concerns such as blocked escape routes, difficulties using rooms or changes in mobility, we can discuss a suitable referral route.

Agree the support

We’ll discuss tenant contact, the scope of work, funding and responsibilities with you. Making Space referrals need the person’s consent.

Plan delivery and updates

Contact us about a single case or a wider service requirement. Arrangements for delivery, reporting and handover are agreed for the work commissioned.
