 General Information / Background
St Matthew Housing was founded in 1973 in response to the needs of homeless people in Norwich. We now work throughout six counties in East Anglia and the East Midlands and house 600 people.

We offer three types of accommodation - houses, group homes and move-on flats.

* Houses. When people are referred to us they usually begin by living in a house. Our houses are always small with between six and ten residents to encourage a supportive and family-like atmosphere. Each house has a live-in house manager who is responsible for the day to day running of the house, for buying food and preparing an evening meal. The meal is a focal point of the day and all those living in the house sit together to eat and discuss the day's activities.

* Group homes are the next step towards independent living. Similar to a house in size, a group home also has a live-in house manager but the residents are responsible for their own food - it is common to see six or eight separate fridges in a group home kitchen!

* Our move-on flats complete the chain and provide a much greater degree of independence. Each flat is self-contained and provides the final stepping-stone in the move back to independent living. Where possible we try to locate our flats near to existing houses or group homes so that there is a house manager nearby should any of the residents require additional support.

We also offer resettlement support to SMH residents wishing to move on to independent accommodation and outreach support to external clients who are in danger of losing their tenancies.
