Type of service provided
Alcohol Outreach provides a Housing Support and Care at Home Service for up to 36 men and women aged 18 years and above. The service is provided city wide to individuals who have a history of non-engagements, have continuing issues with alcohol addiction and are homeless or at risk of homelessness.
The service is staffed:
8am – 7.30pm Monday to Friday
8am – 5.30pm Weekend
The staff Team consists of:
• Service Manager
• Team Leader
• 7 Support Workers
• 8.5 Support Assistants
The service supports individuals who are unwilling or unable to engage with services on a planned or consistent basis and have expressed a view that they will continue to drink alcohol. As a result of these issues the individual will be experiencing homelessness or be at risk of homelessness.
The service operates a multi agency approach which includes involvement from Health, Social Work, Housing and other voluntary Organisation’s in order to maximise the opportunities for the Service User to maintain their accommodation.
How to make a referral and who to contact
The primary reason for referral to the service will be directly related to the individual being affected by or at risk of homelessness and having alcohol related issues.
The current referral process requires that a generic homelessness referral form be completed alongside the appropriate assessment paperwork such as CC1, Baseline assessments or Integrated Homeless Assessment form completed by the identified Care Manager.
The completed referral paperwork should then be forwarded to our Management Team at the listed address.
Upon receipt of this information the Management Team will discuss with the Commissioning Officer for the Service.
