2024-2025 Highlights
• We were delighted to have confirmation of an extension to our Woodleaze project in Yate, which provides high support for 18 young people, for a further two-years , and in Bristol we have increased the capacity of our Dispersed Housing Team to enable us to allocate bed spaces more quickly when young people move on into independent accommodation.
• Five rooms and a kitchen / diner at St George’s House have been renovated in partnership with Kier Construction. This has significantly improved living spaces for young people who are living in this short-term accommodation.
What’s in the Future?
• Thanks to funding from The National Lottery Heritage Fund, we’re transforming our charity’s Grade II* listed home, Kingsley Hall in Old Market. The project will create safe, welcoming spaces for young people — including nine studio flats for those ready to live independently.
• We will expand our accommodation for 16- and 17-year-old care-experienced young people, in partnership with Bristol City Council, including plans for a new Ofsted registered shared house.
• We will implement changes under The Supported Housing (Regulatory Oversight) Act 2023, which aims to improve the quality and regulation of supported housing




Bristol Youth MAPS, based in central Bristol, is a multi-agency hub for preventing homelessness in young people aged 16-21 (up to 24 by referral). In partnership with Bristol City Council and supported by 1625, MAPS offers guidance on housing, mediation to help young people stay at home, and support in finding privately rented or supported accommodation.
