Improving the accommodation pathway for ex-offenders
Nacro Homes Agency is a social lettings agency established by Nacro as part of its Housing and Wellbeing services.
Our agency provides housing within the private rented sector for a variety of vulnerable groups, including ex-offenders who have difficulty accessing housing with support or independent housing themselves, for whatever reason.
We offer our residents quality housing with a rent and tenure suited to their circumstances and, where required, a personalised system of support and coaching to help them maintain their tenancies and prepare for a planned move on into independent accommodation.
Nacro has many years’ experience of working with social and private sector landlords. This is coupled with Nacro’s considerable experience of meeting the housing needs of local authorities and agencies in the ex-offender and substance misuse fields, providing well-established and priced models of delivery.
How we can help you meeting housing needs
We work with those individuals who are experiencing homelessness including:
