OUR AIMS AND OBJECTIVES
Our aim is to provide short term accommodation and support services to young people to enable them to live independently in the community.

Objectives
Our objective is to realise our commitment to achieving positive outcomes for young people and vulnerable adults. To provide safe, healthy, high quality accommodation, which promotes young people’s physical and emotional needs.
Shelter (2021) assert that ‘It can be difficult for young people to find somewhere to live. Private landlords can be reluctant to let to younger people, especially if they are claiming welfare benefits. Young people might have low incomes and a lack of resources, which can make it difficult to access and pay for private rented accommodation’.
Crest Manor take steps to include the voice of the service users in decision making about their
lives and to incorporate those views in service planning and development.
Our objectives are to provide:
- An environment where our services users can feel safe, secure and be valued
- A comprehensive, high quality service which is sensitive to the needs of all, recognises differences and is reflective of ethnic origin, culture, faith, gender, disability, economic position and sexual orientation
- Suitable house accommodation – to make sure all accommodations are in a good decorative order and clean at the point of delivery
- Emergency assistance – A phone number is available to all residents to provide 24-hour emergency call out, 7 days a week above the agreed support hours
- Crest Manor take steps to include the voice of the service users in decision making about their lives and to incorporate those views in service planning and development
