What if….?

You have no belongings? You are ill? You don’t know Glasgow? You can’t get a van ? You don’t understand much English ? You have no money? You have no family / friends? You don’t know where to start?

Why? Lack of furniture / condition of house - key reason for tenancy breakdown People being given a set of keys with nothing else Arrears at early stage of tenancy / unable to move in Increasingly vulnerable referrals to Fab Pad

Our approach What person wants and needs as starting point Things to happen faster Help with all aspects of making a home at the same time Practical help Flexible cash / in kind support

The idea… “One stop shop” Helping people source what they need as quickly as possible to make the home they want. Hope House Mobilised resource -staff & cash. Consulted with Housing Assoc. Worked with 7 new tenants Learned along the way

What we did… Hope House Mobilised resource -staff & cash. Consulted with Housing Assoc. Worked with 7 new tenants Learned along the way

Total Home Early Pilot Referral Visit / take to new home Take stock Shopping / sourcing Engagement

What we learned… Intensive transition support from hostel to tenancy Help tenant feel valued, have choices, be excited about new home Longer engagement, not a quick fix
