About the project
We offer supported housing to 31 people in studio flats based in the centre of Brighton. There are a number of accessible flats for people with mobility impairments.
How can I get a place here?
All referrals are made through Brighton and Hove City Council. More information on how to access housing.
We are unable to offer permanent accommodation. This accommodation is aimed at helping you to get ready for moving to greater independence.
Support
At Fred Emery Court, staff are on hand for advice and support Monday to Friday 830am-4pm and the project benefits from the services of a night porter.
As part of your support plan, you will be assigned a key worker who will support you in identifying and achieving goals to help you move into independent housing.
