Framework Housing Association SOTA (Sneinton Hermitage)
Nottingham, UK
- Accommodation/housing - Other charities or voluntary bodies - Other defined groups SOTA is a 10-bed hostel for male rough sleepers who have been referred to us mainly via the Street Outreach Team. Most of the service users who come through our doors have complex needs such as, mental health problems, alcohol and drug related issues and history of offending. Our aim is to help service users gain some independent living skills, budgeting skills, as well as helping them access services that they require such as drugs and alcohol teams, mental health services, accommodation services, probation etc. Framework is a charity and any donations are greatly received. The majority of service users that walk through our doors and are supported by us struggle with maintaining a healthy diet and sometimes only live on one meal a day (with toast and the odd donated meal here and there). As a service we do a weekly shops and this is just for the basics. Any surplus food would be a massive help and would encourage the service users to gain a bit more independence.
