Justlife Foundation

Justlife is a charity that specialises in supporting people living in temporary accommodation such as B&B’s, Hotels and Guesthouses which are generally not used by the council as emergency accommodation. We work with people in a person- centred and flexible way to ensure that their stay temporary accommodation is as short, safe and healthy as possible. This might mean helping people to sort out issues with their benefits, attend GP appointments or make housing referrals for longer term accommodation. Justlife works closely with the Manchester National Probation Service as part of the 'Targeted Referrals Project' working with high risk offenders placed in temporary accommodation. Justlife provides support during their stay in the temporary accommmodation and to move out into more suitable longer term housing, whilst working closely with offender managers and propery landlords. This approach has proved successful.
