Housing

Monmouthshire County Council's Supporting People Programme provides housing-related support to help vulnerable people live as independently as possible. This could be in people's own homes or in hostels, sheltered housing, or other specialist supported housing.

There are many reasons why it can sometimes be difficult to find accommodation, or why it can be difficult to keep the accommodation you are already in. You may need support because you have a disability, you could be homeless or have a drug problem.

Solas provide housing and support for homeless young people, adults and families. Solas give people a safe place to live and support them to get their lives back on track.
They provide accommodation for homeless people and families in Chepstow and Abergavenny.
 
Services include:
Accommodation Based Services
Floating Support Services
Specialist Young People's Services
Family Support, through the Family Intervention Project and Women's Reunite Service.
