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, which caters for up to 17 people.
Fair View Court a hostel for homeless people in Oundle Road, Peterborough provides modern temporary accommodation for up to seventeen people and offers a secure, friendly environment, with trained staff on hand to provide support and advice to residents.
Emergency Night Shelter and Support Services in Lincolnshire - 7 Red Lion Street in Boston is a direct access hostel for homeless people between the ages of 18 to 65. 8-12 weeks stays provide access to agencies, health care, benefit advice, employment, education, training access and other support services.
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. Our aim is to ensure that our clients are able to live in independent housing, but in a supported environment.
