Supported housing

What is supported housing?

Supported housing is for people who are vulnerable and need help to manage living in their home on a day-to-day basis.

How hard is it to get supported housing?

Demand for supported housing in Oldham is high and availability is limited.

What accommodation is there in Oldham?

Our commissioned providers are Depaul UK (young people) and Petrus (Women and generic pathway).

We can also help signpost to other providers where there may be a waiting list for the provisions above, or where somewhere else may be better suited to your needs.
