The scheme, which is part of a National House Project, will provide supported and affordable accommodation to care leavers aged 16-18, giving them stability as they prepare for independence.
Cabinet members voted to approve a £250,000 spend to fund a local house project for an initial three-years, after discussing the benefits of the project at last week’s meeting (Friday January 22).
The scheme will provide ten to 15 young people with accommodation which they will have a say in decorating and furnishing.
They will be assisted by a specialist team who will help them manage their own tenancy and help provide any additional emotional or practical support they need.
