What we do
At Stody House in Manchester, we work with other organisations to deliver cognitive psychological and social rehabilitation services to ex-service personnel. This includes access to employment and training opportunities to help residents rebuild their lives.
We offer short- to medium-term accommodation, and support residents to recover from physical, mental or social injury following their time in service.
Our personalised service focuses on a person’s strengths, supporting them in areas they wish to develop to move to independence.
This includes:
- help accessing sustainable accommodation
- learning skills in budgeting, paying bills, managing debt and dealing with paperwork
- support accessing employment, training, education, and voluntary work
- help to pursue personal interests
- signposting to specialist services (including substance misuse, mental health or domestic violence services).
Eligibility
Applicants must have been in the armed forces.
They must also be:
- living alone and aged over 18 without dependent children, unless the property is specifically designated for a family/parent or couple/child
