Broadacres' supported housing offers an alternative to hospitalisation for people in need of intensive mental health support services.

The recovery process for people experiencing mental ill health is greatly enhanced by living in as ordinary an environment as possible. This helps people to grow in confidence living within their community and to respond effectively to the impact of their illness.

Broadacres has three supported housing schemes, one at Askrigg, one in Northallerton and one in Scarborough (Support is provided by ‘Rethink’ in Scarborough). Each has six self-contained flats.

A multi-agency approach is used to deliver short-term (up to 2 years), support services with Broadacres staff working closely with the Community Mental Health Team, Consultants, General Practitioners and other support providers .
