North West Methodist Mission

North West Methodist Mission

The Hostel provides accommodation for 47 single homeless men. We not only provide a home but we promote independent living. Our aim is to provide residents with encouragement and support until they are housed by the local housing authority. A resettlement programme runs within the hostel to enable the residents to become more independent and break the cycle of homelessness that many experience. The Hostel continues to be the local centre of the missions social outreach in Derry.

Services

In September 2003, the MCM moved to a new purpose built premises, developed and owned by North & West Housing Ltd, providing 49 units of accommodation to single homeless men, 43 in a shared living environment and 6 in self contained units. The MCM manages the Hostel, including the provision of housing management services, under a management agreement established with North & West and provide support services to residents occupying the premises under a support contract with NIHE.

In these premises all residents have their own rooms with individual washing facilities. The premises are equipped to a high specification with facilities designed to develop life skills and to empower residents to move towards independent living, equipping them with skills to sustain tenancies in their own right.

As part of their conditions of tenancy in the hostel, we encourage the residents to participate in a resettlement programme. The MCM employs a full-time Resettlement Manager and assistant who meet regularly with the residents to discuss issues they feel are of importance to living independently, and to provide basic living skills that the resident may need to learn.
