Bernadette
came to her local LIFE House desperate for help. Fleeing domestic violence,
pregnant with her third child, and with nowhere else to turn, she didn’t think
it would be possible to over-come longstanding issues and repair her
relationship with her family.
Her Support Plan worked on building confidence
and self-esteem and together with her Support Worker, Bernadette developed a
valuable network of friends and family to ensure she was happy and safe when she
was ready to leave our care.

A Range of Support
LIFE Housing's support service is provided in three ways; General Support, Individual Support Plans and the LIFE Skills Programme.
Each service user has an Individual Support Plan. This is based on a pyramid system that enables service users to identify issues that they would like support with and to highlight their goals, both short and long-term.
Our staff support the service user as she develops her plan, assisting her in prioritising her challenges and support needs and setting goals. The short-term goals are always achievable within one month, and are stepping stones on the way to achieving the long- term goals.
Service users' Individual Support Plans are reviewed monthly.
