Framework Transitions South

This service provides temporary supported accommodation for young people from the ages of 16 to 21, primarily from South Notts, which supports young people's transitions to adulthood and independence.

Transitions South aims to improve the life chances, life changes and life choices of young people in Nottinghamshire by providing a range of support services most appropriate to their needs and circumstances.

The service provides 52 units of supported accommodation, 12 of which are core units and two are emergency units in Lady Bay West Bridgford, which are staffed 24hours a day. The other 38 units are dispersed across Broxtowe, Gedling and Rushcliffe.

What does Transitions do?
