Cross-borough property move-ins from Manchester to Trafford
Posted 5th December 2023
December is set to be an incredibly exciting and busy month for the Manchester and Trafford House Project team as it consists of supporting 3 property sign-ups and arranging move-ins for 3 incredible young people on the current cohort of the Manchester and Trafford House Project.
The fantastic collaboration between Manchester and Trafford enabled 3 young people from Manchester to find their dream homes in the Trafford borough as they signed and accepted a gorgeous new-build property! Our young people were eager to put their key in their door to unlock a world of new possibilities, living independently for the very first time and having a safe space to call home, where they can feel comfortable and create their own sanctuary.
This opportunity has been delightful for our local house project to develop a relationship with a housing provider whom we haven't worked with before and we are overjoyed to be adopting a collaborative working approach, supporting our young people into their own homes and making this possible.
Here at the Manchester and Trafford House Project, we are extremely proud of all that our young people have and continue to achieve and we would like to extend our gratitude to all housing providers and everyone involved in supporting us and most importantly, our wonderful young people.
