The Beeches, Manchester

What you will find at the accommodation

How the service works

The Beeches offers up to six months of accommodation, alongside tailored support to help you build independence and prepare for your next home. During your stay, staff work with you to develop independent living skills and support you into education, training, or work. You’ll also receive help to find move-on accommodation, working closely with other housing providers to make the transition as smooth as possible.

Referrals are made through Housing Solutions at Manchester Town Hall, as well as via Adult Social Services and care leaver pathways. Women moving on from Stopover, our sister project, may also be offered a place at The Beeches if they need a higher level of support.

Getting the most out of our service

  • Support to rebuild family relationships, where this is safe and appropriate.
  • Help to stay safe, improve your mood, and build motivation and confidence.
  • Access to training in independent living and tenancy skills through Centrepoint.
  • Ongoing help to prepare for longer-term housing, with floating support available to help you sustain your tenancy after you move on.

How this service is different

The Beeches is more than a temporary place to stay. We provide person-centred support, shaped around your individual needs, risks, and goals, helping you build confidence, self-esteem, and the skills you need to live more independently.
