Social Purpose

The main reason that we exist is to provide choice to prospective tenants who may have previously been excluded from or struggled to access the Private Rented Sector. The four main groups that we aim to support are:

Supported tenancies

People who need a level of support to manage their tenancy (we provide support through our partner housing support service; Settled: Housing Support. This is an Aberdeen Cyrenians housing support service registered with the Care Inspectorate.)

People at risk

Service Users of other Aberdeen Cyrenians services. For example, those fleeing domestic violence who need quick access to safe accommodation, but don't need any support to manage a tenancy.

People waiting

People who are on either the local authority(s) housing lists or those of registered social landlords, but may be considered to be low priority (and therefore face a long wait). Offering this service therefore relieves pressure from the list!

Anyone and Everyone

Everyone else! Anyone who responds to the marketing of your property e.g. working professionals, students etc.light touch when everything is going well (e.g. phone call once a month) varying level/intensity of support changes when you or we notice issues.
