We aim to cater for a broad cross section of community needs, including people who as well as having accommodation problems, require additional support services in order to live independently. Axiom has a diverse range of this type of housing.
Homelessness
We own and manage Peterborough's night-shelter for single homeless people - The
New Haven in Towler Street. This provides temporary overnight accommodation for
people who might otherwise have nowhere else to stay. We have recently moved
the night-shelter to this improved accommodation in order to respond to increased
demand and it now caters for up to 17 people.
Refugee Support
The Cromwell Road Project is an eight bed shared living scheme, located close to Peterborough city centre, which provides a supportive, multi-cultural environment to refugees and asylum seekers with high social and support needs. Each resident has their own room and use of the facilities in the communal areas. We provide general support, counselling and advice to the residents and help to gain access to training, education and employment. We aim to help our residents prepare for independent living within the local community.
People with Mental Health
Problems
Working closely with Peterborough City Council and the Health Authority we manage
a number of Independent Living Schemes for people with long term and enduring
mental health problems. Some schemes are in small group home settings, whilst
others are slightly larger. The key to the success of these
projects is the dedicated staff support given to each resident.
Young People
Foyers provide specialist accommodation for young single people in the 16 - 30
year age range. We now have four projects - The Foyer
at Market Rasen, Paines
Mill Foyer at St Neots, Wisbech Foyer and the Peterborough Foyer. They all offer good quality
housing, but in addition, specialist staff are at hand to help residents make
the important transition towards gaining independence. The young people who live
in these projects have to agree to engage in employment, training or further
education.
People With Learning
Difficulties
Working in partnership with local Social Services, Axiom has developed a number
of purposely designed housing projects in Cambridgeshire for people who have
learning difficulties, for example South View. Our aim is to ensure that our clients are able to live
in independent housing, but in a supported environment.
