Housing related support
Support available
A person might need support with issues such as budgeting, life skills, drug or alcohol misuse, avoiding offending etc. They may need help with this no matter where they live, and this is known as floating support.
In Cheshire West and Chester, ForFutures provide support services on behalf of us for people who are at risk of becoming homeless, those without secure accommodation or ‘sofa surfing’, and people sleeping rough.
If you are a Council tenant and need support in your home, ForHousing also have wellbeing support services that can help you.
