Glasgow Housing First

Glasgow Housing First service provides support for individuals experiencing homeless including their own secure tenancy with a registered social landlord.

Housing First prioritises access to housing as quickly as possible without any conditions other than the willingness to maintain a tenancy.

Flexible support is provided for as long as it is needed, with housing providers committing to long-term, flexible support..

The housing and support are separate so housing is not conditional on engaging with the support.

Individuals have choice and control, where possible, about where they live. Accommodation is self-contained, unless they would prefer shared housing.

The service supports people to identify their strengths and goals and to develop skills and knowledge to achieve them.

A harm reduction approach is used so individuals who self-harm are supported to undertake practices which minimise the risk of self-harming.

Referrals are made through Glasgow Health and Social Care Partnership.
