Living at Lawrence House

Lawrence House provides a private room for each individual, with a range of communal facilities, including bathrooms, toilets, kitchens, laundry and a communal lounge, complete with pool table, games, books, TV and other items kindly donated to us. Lawrence House is a No Smoking building in all public areas. Smoking is allowed in some of the resident’s rooms only. A key-worker system is operated, which offers the young people living here the support that they feel is necessary in many areas of their lives, such as benefits, budgeting, life skills, family relationships, and career choices. In addition to this, there is always a member of staff on duty and available to give support and advice or just to listen. A staff member is on duty at all times, with sleeping night cover to deal with emergencies. The maximum time a person can stay at Lawrence House is 24 months.

Living at the Move-on:

Residents have their own private room with communal use of bathroom kitchen and lounge. Residents are responsible for ensuring the property is kept clean and tidy with key workers ensuring each resident carries out household duties. The move-on property is within walking distance of Lawrence House. Residents continue keywork but have a greater level of independence. All residents need to have lived a Lawrence House previously for Hinckley Homeless Group to ensure their ability and readiness for greater independence. Residents can access the duty worker in an emergency. The maximum time a person can stay in the Move-on is 24 months. Throughout their stay at both projects, each young person will be encouraged and supported by staff who work alongside them on a resettlement package, with the objective of securing move on to independent accommodation. After leaving Lawrence House or the Move-on, advice and support is still available via Resettlement. Where a resident, in their own accommodation, receives support on their tenancy by their key-worker for up to 6 months. After this time ex-residents can still access support from the main office.
