Not everyone who visits will have a spare room, and that’s fine. Sharing what you’ve learned helps us reach the people who do. And anyone can have a go at our challenge.
Can you build a safe home when the odds keep shifting? Stack your bricks, spin the wheel and see what gets in your way. It takes a few minutes, and it shows the barriers young people face when they’re trying to find a stable place to live.
Supported lodgings hosts offer a young person aged 16 to 24 a room in their home and everyday support while they build towards living independently. We recruit, train and support every host, and hosts receive an allowance. Step by Step is the UK’s leading supported lodgings provider and is Ofsted registered.
Seven young people from Step by Step recently swapped dry land for open water, spending five days crewing a yacht along the south coast with Ocean Youth Trust South.
