Company Description
Established in 2007, Abigail Housing (AH) was founded to provide both security and refuge for those at the end of the asylum process – both those recently granted refugee status and therefore at high risk of homelessness, and those who are Appeals Rights Exhausted (ARE). We meet crisis need before working to enable our service-users to overcome the longer-term issues leading to homelessness and enabling them to secure longer-term housing. We are experts in preventing homelessness among this particularly vulnerable group: our approach is community-focused, housing-first, strengths-based and trauma-informed.
AH provides accommodation and holistic wraparound support to homeless and destitute ARE asylum seekers in Bradford and recently recognised refugees in Leeds. Our purpose is to prevent destitution and homelessness; alleviate social exclusion; support with longer-term housing options; facilitate re-engagement with the asylum process and enable access to other services. Our vision, to provide welcome to all people seeking sanctuary in West Yorkshire.
