Shared houses

How it works

We currently manage 20 shared houses for refused asylum seekers and refugees. Houses are single sex, and are allocated for men or women. Unfortunately, we cannot usually accommodate family groups. This accommodation and support is available for up to 12 months.

Start with our emergency winter accommodation

Please note that, during the winter season, people who are staying in the Boaz night shelter or our women's emergency accommodation are usually prioritised for longer term hosting and shared housing places.

Can you help?

Boaz leases our shared houses free of charge or at low cost from various sources. Over the years these sources have included individual supporters, a local housing association and a social enterprise.

We are always looking to further expand the number of shared houses we have for destitute asylum seekers. If you have a property that you would be willing for us to use, please get in touch with us.
