Helping people at a critical time in their lives

For more than 25 years Shape Housing Association has helped thousands of vulnerable people, from providing stability and a safe place to live for people facing a bleak and uncertain future, to support and training which has helped many shape the rest of their lives.

Founded in 1983, we are a specialist supported housing provider working in particular with vulnerable young people and homeless people. Many have complex needs such as mental illness, drug and alcohol dependency or other challenging needs.

We are part of Somer Housing Group which is bringing together all the Group's members into one stronger organisation - find out more at Forward Together.
