What we do ..
By working in collaboration with the local authority, other agencies, local businesses, charities, and churches. Together, we help support people already living in temporary council accommodation situated on the New Pasture Lane estate. NPLCC believes that a person living in temporary accommodation near the community centre deserves basic furniture.
What it Means..
In the UK, homelessness is legally defined by the Housing Act 1996 and extends beyond just sleeping rough to include being unable to occupy any home, even if a person is provided with temporary/emergency accommodation. This also covers people in situations like living in a hostel, sofa-surfing, being at risk of domestic violence, or facing eviction, and also includes those with no legal right to occupy their home, who cannot access it, or who live in a mobile structure. We currently support people living in emergency accommodation on the New Pasture Lane estate in Bridlington, only.
Our Goals & Service
Our Goal: To help support individuals and families who are experiencing homelessness and live in emergency accommodation situated on New Pasture Lane estate. Our top priority is victims of domestic violence and single parents with young children.
Service provided: We work in partnership with the housing officers for East Yorkshire Council and DVAP to support the case and help restore them into the community, with hope, dignity, and connection. We feel that by providing this and ongoing support through our community pantry to address food poverty, we are giving a helping hand in the right direction for someone to get back on their feet and build their lives after experiencing a tough situation.
Needs for each crisis case: Provision of basic soft furnishings and household essentials to create a dignified, comfortable, clean-living space from day one. In time, when the person/s are resettled, we will work with the individual to consider their next steps in life.
Our help will be introduced in 4 stages ..
stag 1 - Assess
This is where we assess where we can help and place a plan together of what is needed.
Stage 2- Plan
This is where we contact all our agency, local business, churches, other charity partners and share what is needed.
Stage 3- Resettle
Now we have a plan and the collaborative partners included, we start to resettle the homeless person in their temp home.
Stage 4 - Rebuild
This stage is where we work on rebuilding a person's life. Through helping fill out benefit forms, gaining support through the right agencies and using our food pantry to save money on food costs.
