🧡 Willow House is one of Solo Housing’s supported accommodation properties — a small, five-room scheme designed to offer stability, safety and the right level of support for people taking steps away from homelessness.
It may be small in size, but it plays an important role in helping customers rebuild confidence and independence, with time and tailored support built in.
What makes Willow House work so well is the combination of safe accommodation and dedicated support. Solo Housing staff are regularly on-site, providing consistent, person-centred support tailored to each customer’s needs. Whether it’s help with managing finances, maintaining routines, accessing services or building confidence and independence, staff are there to offer practical guidance every step of the way.
Just as important is the wider partnership approach. Across our work in East Anglia, we collaborate with a range of partner organisations to make sure support doesn’t stop at the front door. This joined-up approach helps bridge gaps for people who may not meet higher thresholds for other services, but still need structured help to move forward.
Willow House is a great example of what happens when housing, support and partnership working come together in a practical, person-centred way.
Sometimes it’s the simple things that make the biggest difference — a safe room, consistent support, and the space to take the next step forward.

🖐️ Safety has never been so... hands-on!
Our new ‘POINTERS’ are being rolled out to customers to make weekly smoke alarm testing easier, safer and a little more fun.
No standing on chairs, no awkward stretching – just extend, point, press, test and record it on the testing sheet provided.
Available in six cheerful colours, these little helping hands might raise a smile, but the job they do is seriously important.
