SITRA has produced a report on behalf of the Yorkshire and Humber Housing Related Support Group to highlight the contribution of Housing Related Support to the achievement of positive outcomes for vulnerable people across the area.

The study focused on how housing related support:

•Enables individuals facing multiple disadvantage to improve their wellbeing
•Complements the strategic objectives of a wide range of stakeholders involved with supporting vulnerable individuals
•Offers good value for money, by preventing the need for expensive crisis interventions and long term institutional solutions
•Promotes independence, by enabling service users to take control of their own lives
•Provides a platform for the development of wider service choice.

Using a combination of case studies, stakeholder interviews and cost/benefit analysis, SITRA found that housing related support provides a cost effective way of delivering services to a wide range of vulnerable people. It achieves positive outcomes in line with people’s personal circumstances and prevents demand for more expensive options.
