Housing AdviceA Youth Project partnership between Churches Housing Action Team (CHAT) and Westcountry Housing Association (WHA).

The accommodation is affordable for young people who are living on benefits while they attend college, undertake voluntary work activities or work full time.

Applications cannot be accepted for couples or young people with high support needs.
