Referrals can be made to Nowell Court by voluntary and statutory agencies and by self-referral. A high proportion of our referrals come form Leeds City Council Homelessness Advice and Prevention Team. We can take referrals Monday to Friday between 9.00am – 5.00pm.
We are not a direct access hostel and follow a detailed referral procedure. However, we aim to process referrals within 24 hours and recognise that temporary accommodation may be urgently required.
The basic criteria used to assess the referral are:
-
that circumstances meet the aims and objectives of the project
-
housing status
-
the level of support needed and willingness to accept support
-
risk assessment and management of risk
