Who we are

Live, Work Thrive is a support programme, developed and delivered in partnership across Hastings and Rother.

Our partnership consists of Hastings Borough Council and Rother District Council and our community partners The Education Futures Trust, The Fellowship of St Nicholas, and Sussex Community Development Association.

Our support is delivered by our effective and diligent Coaches, who work with their clients holistically to identify and provide a custom package of support. We are a friendly and positive service. We understand our clients' situations and can offer the full, holistic support they need, tailored to each individual.

The Live, Work, Thrive project is due to be completed by the end of December 2022.  As a consequence, the project will only be able to accept new client referrals up until Monday 31st of October 2022.  Please note that these referrals will first be evaluated to ensure that successful outcomes can be attained before the project completes (i.e. prior to the clients being accepted onto the project and provided with subsequent help and support).

What do we do?

The Live, Work, Thrive project works with people who are homeless or at risk of homelessness in and around Hastings and Rother.

The Live Work Thrive Coaches provide intensive support to participants and work holistically with people to help them set and achieve goals to aid their progression out of homelessness.

Our work focusses around the following main areas

• helping people get back into work or training
• supporting people to improve their health and wellbeing and be in a better position to improve their housing outcomes.

What our clients say about us

• "I wish I could find the words to express how grateful I am to the service "Live Work Thrive".  My Coach has been nothing short of amazing, After years of being passed from one person to another and just getting nowhere I felt like someone was actually listening to me and was actively going to support me in securing a safe home for my children and from the very first phone call I felt less overwhelmed by it all as they took the reins and made the whole process more manageable and less confusing for me. Within weeks he achieved more than anyone from any other organisation with less stress to myself"
• " My Coach is a great help and is always there if I need him."
