Carlisle Key works with young people 16-25 who are homeless or at risk of homelessness. We provide assistance and support within our drop in service to alleviate the hardship and distress caused by homelessness, housing, financial and other related difficulties. We empower young people by giving them the knowledge, support, and confidence they need so that they can live independently and take an active role in the local community.

The services which are provided include at our Drop-in Centre:
• Access to Housing
• Homeless Advice
• Housing Advice (housing searches, choice based lettings etc)
• Money Management
• Welfare Benefits Advice
• Tenancy Advice and Advocacy
• Computer/Telephone Access

• 1 to 1 External Support (to attend appointment/in-home support)
• Referrals to other Agencies
• Practical Support, such as food parcels, toiletries, clothing, small household items.
We also provide Supported Accommodation since 2019: We provide 11 beds in our supported accommodation facility, offering a safe and stable living environment for young people who are homeless. This service ensures that residents receive daily support tailored to their individual needs.
