We will bring to England the Citadel’s model developed in Wales to establish, train and mobilise volunteers to complement the efforts of case workers with the aim of improving access to community services, expanding social connections, improving the sense of belonging and reducing loneliness. We expect to have results from the trial in autumn 2025.
We are looking for up to ten Local Authorities to make around 580 referrals of whom half will receive support from Citadel volunteers recruited by Housing Justice.
