The Moving on Support Team team work with people who are homeless or threatened with homelessness.

The service is responsible for preventing homelessness and providing housing advice to people around their housing options.

The housing inclusion officers in the team are responsible for carrying out the statutory homelessness assessment function for people who are either referred to or approach us directly.

There is some work for the housing inclusion officers with a range of different people who are homeless for a variety of reasons in addition to the main client group.
