Supporting people who are homeless and vulnerable
We know that life isn’t always simple. We never know when we may be faced by a crisis, feel despair, or need support to live the independent life we wish for. Sometimes we just need someone to walk by our side. At Alabaré, that’s what we do.
Through our extensive network of homes, drop-in centres and support services, we offer people who are homeless and vulnerable accommodation and support so they can live a safe and positive life of their choice. If housing or wellbeing is a problem for you, take a look at what we do and get in touch to see if we can help.
What we do
We’ve been supporting people who are homeless, vulnerable or marginalised for over 30 years, empowering individuals to live a fulfilled and independent life. We do this by providing safe accommodation and helping them gain the skills and confidence they need to embrace the life they deserve.
See below for a comprehensive list of who and how we help.
Homelessness
We offer homes and support for people who are homeless or those in vulnerable situations. This can include an immediate roof over their heads, supporting their mental health and training to help them progress and move on in any way they choose.

Veterans
Our veteran pathway provides accommodation, training, wellbeing and support programmes to help ex-Armed Forces personnel who have struggled or faced homelessness in their civilian lives.

Our Supported Living Homes, and activities run at our Development Centres, ensure our adults with learning disabilities have the independent and fulfilling lives that they choose.
