Our floating support service can help if you are at risk of being homeless or if you need support to help with life's challenges.Floating support is available to tenants and home owners in Bournemouth who have tenancy-related needs. We can help you with things like maintaining your tenancy, developing domestic skills and life skills, and managing finances, such as benefits and debt. We can also help you access advice, advocacy and signposting to other agencies or services, as well as social activities. We'll also help to monitor your health and wellbeing.

After we have assessed your needs, we develop a support plan with you which includes a list agreed targets.
