Community Campus '87 is a community based social enterprise formed in 1987 by a group of young people to address the emerging crisis of youth homelessness in Teesside.
Today providing housing for homeless people and a range of person centred services is core to what we do. We believe and know that enabling people to remove the barrier of homelessness will lead to improved opportunities in life.
We have a a number of services working with the supporting people teams in Middlesbrough and Stockton, Community Campus '87 provides supported housing and floating support services in Middlesbrough for young homeless people, often including young parents and people with a range of related problems and issues.
In Stockton, working with the Drugs Action Team the Get Moving Project provides support and advice to Drugs Action Team clients to enable them to access accommodation in the private and social housing sector. We are currently developing a model which enables homeless people to gain building skills through the renovation of empty properties, turning empty houses into homes, providing housing and training opportunities for homeless people.
