HOMES, SUPPORT & TRAINING
Alabaré runs two foyers for young people aged 16–21: one in Andover and one in Wiltshire. Foyers offer both housing and learning opportunities.
Andover Foyer is centrally located and accepts referrals from Hampshire County Council, Test Valley Borough Council, or self-referrals. We also support young parents and Unaccompanied Asylum Seeking Children.
Wiltshire Foyer accepts referrals only via Wiltshire Council’s Homeless Team. All homes are near town centres and colleges.
Our teams help you settle in, create a personalised support plan, and work with other agencies. We also offer in-house training to build confidence, support employment, and prepare you for independent living.

Homelessness
Throughout our homeless accommodation and drop-in service, we support hundreds of people who are homeless every year.
Homelessness isn’t just about losing a roof; it’s about losing stability, safety, and wellbeing. Early support can stop the trauma before it starts.
