The Langley House Trust and TCHT, both Christian charities, have been working together for some 18 months with a view to merging. Langley is able to bring resources and a robust managerial framework which will enhance the good work already being carried out at the project.
A £60,000 refurbishment programme is already planned for the hostel premises, which are in need of some attention.
The Torbay Project is the first of a new category of project for the Trust since it works with people who are marginalised and homeless but who may not necessarily have an offending background.
The project offers a number of Direct Access beds (accommodation which is immediately available, subject to demand, rather than being dependent on a referrals process). The project also provides annexed accommodation for those ready to live semi-independently, a Doctor's Surgery and a range of supported housing in the wider Torbay area for those ready to move back into the community.
The project has good contacts with other agencies in the area and a great deal of local goodwill.
(For further information, please see our press release.)
