Since 2007, First Point Floating Support has been providing community based support to those who are vulnerable or face social exclusion. We aim to help people build more stable and secure lives through helping them make changes for the long term. The people we support are diverse and can have backgrounds of domestic violence, homelessness, mental ill health and substance misuse.

We help people successfully manage their homes, building stability for all. Through our work people feel empowered to build on their developing self confidence to give back to their community.

We help people secure work, training, keep homes that were once jeopardised and secure more stable homes. We help people budget their finances for the longer term and find coping strategies for future difficulties. We offer drop in services for quick and instant help and a referral route for those needing more intensive support. We support over 100 people at any one time and the majority of our clients move on from our service in less than 6 months.
