The charity achieves this by providing support and expertise to local authorities around the country to set up and manage Local House Projects (LHPs) so that young people can leave care in a carefully planned way. The work began by asking young people ‘what makes a house a home’ and was co-designed with young people from the start. With a psychologically informed practice framework the approach is relational through which young people in and leaving care work together with staff to create their first home and build a long-term community of support. The first HP in Stoke-on-Trent was led by Mark Warr and Sue Hammersley who continue to lead on the on-going national project development. The Stoke-on-Trent project was set up in 2015 followed by the implementation of a further five Local House Projects in 2017. With an ambition to expand nationally, NHP was then set up as a charitable body, with the aim of rolling out the programme across England and Scotland. The organisation now supports 24 local authorities and has a plan to scale by five new projects per year. Being part of a LHP has supported young people to gain confidence, achieve successful interdependence by transitioning to full council tenancies, secure jobs and stay in college – aspirations which the NHP team want for any young person leaving care. To maximise the ownership of young people and ensure that their collective voice is heard, amplified and acted on, NHP also established Care Leavers National Movement (CLNM). It has representation from all LHPs at a regional level with these meetings feeding into the more strategic function of CLNM.Working Hours :Monday to Friday 9am - 5pm, Breaks: 30-minutesSkills: Communication skills,IT skills,Organisation skills,Customer care skills,Administrative skills,Logical,Team working,Non judgemental,Patience....Read more...
