We have been shortlisted for the UK Housing Awards 2022
Posted 6th September 2022
We are delighted to be shortlisted for this year's UK Housing Awards under the category 'Homelessness project of the year'!
We recognise that ending homelessness is not only about providing bricks and mortar, but realising your home is central to your health and wellbeing, your sense of belonging and integral to what you can offer in your community. Enabling young people to feel confident and skilled, alongside building a strong network of support around them, contributes strongly to their ability to maintain a home, become part of the local community, and build successful lives. We are delighted that there have been no tenancy breakdowns or evictions. Our young people are changing the narrative around care leavers – from being a group who have figured highly amongst statistics related to homelessness to a group of young people who are welcomed as tenants and contributing positively to society.
The UK Housing Awards 2022 will be celebrated in Manchester for the first time! The awards showcase the very best of #ukhousing and organisations that are delivering high-quality homes and services in partnership with the communities they serve. In a challenging environment it’s more important than ever that we look to identify and share learning about innovative and exceptional work that is helping to deliver decent, affordable housing and transform people’s lives.

In May, we were proud to attend the Frontline Awards to celebrate Coventry City Council’s Pathways service winning the Multi-Agency Partnership of the Year award. Funded by the Rayne Foundation, the Pathways programme brings together a number of organisations, including NHP, Coram Voice and The Rees Foundation, working closely alongside the Throughcare Service, Coventry House Project and Lifelong Links. Together, the partnership supports young people leaving care to develop skills, build positive relationships, and focus on their emotional health and wellbeing. Three cohorts of young people from Coventry have now go through the Pathways Programme. Seeing the partnership recognised nationally was a fantastic moment and a powerful reflection of the impact collaborative working can have in supporting care-experienced young people.

Aspirational Awards Update
In May, the Aspirational Awards panel awarded just over £15,000 to 19 young people across our LHPs. It was inspiring to see such a wide range of ideas, goals and determination reflected in the applications, and a privilege to support more young people as they take their next steps forward. Funding in Round 9 supported training + graduate employment scheme, equipment for a baking business and support for other businesses, sports sessions, music lessons, lifeguard course, and day trips. We have also recently completed a 3 year review of our Aspirational Awards and the impact they’ve had. Over the past 3 years, we’ve awarded over £147,000 to 138 young people (not including figures from our most recent round in May).
