Evesham House
Evesham House is a supported housing project for homeless men and women who have a long history of problematic drinking. We provide a safe and comfortable temporary home where residents can rebuild their lives whilst continuing to drink alcohol within a structured harm reduction framework.
Evesham House is staffed 24 hours a day 7 days a week and gives residents access to friendly and specialist on-site support services. Our aim is to help residents reduce their dependancy on alcohol. At the same time we work towards enabling our residents to live independently in the future.
Whilst residents do not have to abstain from alcohol, it is important that everyone who lives at Evesham House is motivated to change harmful drinking patterns.
To read more about our structured support programme and programme of activities please look at our Evesham House Information Booklet.
