Big House
Big House has eleven studio flats providing supported accommodation to people who have been homeless. It specialises in supporting ex-servicemen from the Armed Forces and receives funding from the Royal British Legion and works in partnership with other agencies including Veteran’s Aid and SSAFA (Soldiers Sailors and Air Force Association).
Big House offers a calm and stable environment for its residents, many of whom have had chaotic and difficult experiences. The average stay is just over a year and during that time we see residents grow in self-esteem and make valuable, sustainable changes in their lives.
We encourage residents to take personal responsibility as much as possible and make the most of the opportunities available. We are proud of our great success rate in seeing people move on positively, and we stay in touch and visit many former residents to see how they are getting on.
Big House Clapham opened in February 2013.
