When people move on from supported accommodation, they often walk into an empty flat.
No bedding. No cookware. No curtains. That’s why Blue Triangle provides Moving On Packs that make a new tenancy feel like home.

It takes more than a set of keys to help someone out of homelessness

Jack had 11 failed tenancies in 8 years.
People saw him as difficult.
We took time to listen.
900+ hours later: he’s housed, in recovery, and volunteering.
💬 “I get listened to. I’m not just taking up space.”
