Stay

At any one time, Stay is supporting about 150 young people who, for one reason or another have found themselves in a position where they are vulnerable, potentially homeless or with nowhere else to turn.  They treat everybody who comes to them as an individual, working with them to overcome any issues that may affect their ability to live independently, and develop and thrive as individuals.

Stay has excellent links with other agencies that mean they’re able to offer advice on a range of subjects including baby massage, healthy eating, sexual health and home safety.

As with all of Stay’s services, the support they offer is tailored to the specific needs of the individual.

Support staff are also available throughout the day and can be contacted on 01952 291904.

LIFE Charity

LIFE Housing is one of the largest providers of accommodation for pregnant women and unsupported mothers aged between 16-25 years in the UK.  Their comprehensive service offers a real, practical alternative to abortion and prepares tenants for independent living with their children in the future.

LIFE houses reflect a typical domestic environment; tenants have their own bedrooms and share communal facilities such as kitchens, bathrooms and lounges. A Support Worker is on site every weekday.

Turning lives around

All tenants have an Individual Support Plan. Support Workers devise these alongside tenants and regularly review the plan together, helping tenants achieve their goals.

The Life Skills Programme helps tenants develop the skills necessary to move on to independent living and covers budgeting, education, employment, nutrition and kitchen skills as well as pregnancy, childcare and emotional support to deal with relationships and parenthood.

Their Community Support Schemes provide support to young parents and their children in their own homes. Service-users are either former LIFE Housing tenants who have moved on but who need extra support, or they are referred to us through agencies such as Social Services.

If you’re their tenant, Telford LIFE House and Community Service is there to help you.
