Third stage supported housing is the final phase of the treatment programme, leading to a gradual and phased return to independent living.

Depending on the needs and wishes of the individual, this final stage can last up to 2 years.

During this phase, clients are supported in developing short, medium and long term goals for the future and exploring the options available to them.

Clients are encouraged to continue to engage with local education and training providers as well as participating in voluntary work and considering longer term plans for returning to or gaining employment.

Clients will receive one to one and group support sessions as well as having access to complimentary therapies and group activities. Third stage supported housing will be fully funded through Housing Benefit and supporting people.
