Supported accommodation

Fry Housing Trust offers supported accommodation to people who are homeless and at risk of offending. We work with clients to help them ultimately move into independent accommodation. Fry Housing Trust offers a range of residential support, allowing greater independence to live a more settled life with increased life choices.
