Young Parents and Women's Services
Stay operates two specialist supported housing schemes for vulnerable young people who are new to parenthood. Services are based at Charnborough Court in Oakengates and Clews Wood Court in Madeley. These offer self contained accommodation to parents aged 16 to 29 years of age who have no more than two children aged up to 5. These services are provided in partnership with the Bromford Housing Group. Stay can also offer a floating support service to young parents needing support who already live in their own accommodation.

In partnership with the Wrekin Housing trust we can also offer supported accommodation to vulnerable young women at OctaviaCourt in Dawley.
