Supported Lodgings
The Albert Kennedy Trust is best known for our supported lodgings scheme.

We match lesbian, gay bisexual and trans people with lesbian, gay, bisexual and trans young people who are homeless, living in a hostile environment or in crisis. Carers can be couples, single people or families with children.

To be a carer you need:

•To have an appropriate spare room
•Positively identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual and/or trans
•Be aged 21+
•Live in Greater Manchester or London (any London borough)
•Be prepared to undergo a 6month+ training & assessment process
The young people referred to the Trust have often experienced discrimination from their families or within the care system that has resulted in their becoming homeless.

Our supported lodgings carers usually work with young people aged 16-21 (up to 25 in exceptional circumstances) and most placements last 6-18 months.
