Day to day

What we do here

Day to day running of the house is a joint concern between the tenants and staff. Tenants choose if they wish to eat a communal evening meal or to cook their own meal, with or without support. Those taking part in communal meals also participate in menu planning, shopping and cooking. Tenants are also supported in the cleaning of communal areas and their own rooms if they need the support.

We have an external advocate that comes in for the tenants once a month for a house meeting, providing a forum for practical and emotional issues to be discussed, interests shared and plans made. We, as a house, find this extremely useful for any issues or praises to be raised and made in a safe, non-judgemental setting that is separate from the staff and management.
