Nightstop: One night stay for young people aged 16-25, in the home of a police checked and trained volunteer.
Hostels: If you are assessed as priority need you will be referred by your Housing Options Officer to enter the men’s, women’s or families accommodation.
Hostels providing support: There are various types of hostels and different ways to access them. Some hostels wish to interview you and need references. Some are longer term, offering support to help people develop life skills and prepare for their own tenancy.
Bed and breakfast: This is increasingly a last resort for homeless people. You have little security of accommodation. The accommodation can be a poor standard and you may not be able to stay in the premises during the day.
Stockport Women’s Aid: If you need to leave a violent domestic situation contact Women’s Aid directly. If you need information and advice you can call the helpline. Also, the Housing Information Centre can refer you to a women’s aid hostel.
