More than 132,000 households, including over 172,000 children, are living in temporary accommodation (TA). Intended as a short-term solution, many people remain there for months or years in unsafe, unsuitable conditions that damage their health, wellbeing and hope. With rising homelessness, stretched services and limited support, too many people become trapped in a cycle of isolation, poor health and repeat homelessness.

Justlife provides person-centred health, housing and social connection support to people living in temporary accommodation. Through one-to-one support, befriending and community activities, we help people improve their health, rebuild confidence, reduce isolation and secure stable housing. By walking alongside people through every stage of recovery, we help them move beyond homelessness and build lasting, independent lives.
