We are delighted to have been featured on ITV Meridian News. They recently shone a spotlight on the life-changing impact of Supported Lodgings, and the incredible people behind it.
The segment features Step by Step’s Supported Lodgings service, where ordinary people become everyday heroes by offering a safe, supportive home to young people in need. With the right environment and guidance, these young people are building brighter futures, and it all starts with someone opening their door.
Watch the full report below to see how hosting is transforming lives, and why your spare room could be the start of something extraordinary.

If you have space in your home and the desire to help, becoming a host could be one of the most rewarding things you ever do. We provide full training, ongoing support, and a weekly allowance; you provide a room, some time, and belief in what’s possible.
Join us in celebrating National Supported Lodgings Week and find out how you can make a difference. We'll be out in the community, sharing content and inviting you to take on our Stacked Against You Challenge.
