The Access Place

Homeless support for people with support needs

The Homelessness Team within The Access Place offers the same service as the Homelessness Teams within the localities, but only for people who

  • have significant support needs
  • are over the age of 16
  • who are not responsible for the care of a child or children.

Significant support needs include

  • mental health issues
  • alcohol use
  • drug use
  • learning difficulties
  • acquired brain injury
  • behavioural issues
  • suffering from sexual or physical abuse

Some people may be trying to manage more than one of the above at the one time.

The Access Place is open Monday, Wednesday and Thursday 9am to 5pm, Tuesday 10am to 5pm and Friday 9am to 4pm. The office is closed daily between 1pm and 2pm.
