Case Study - GES and Sandwell Local House Project

14th July 2025

Our partners GES invited NHP and the Sandwell Local House Project (LHP) to their Summer Townhall event (which is a staff conference they host each July). It was a fantastic event, in the morning there were a variety of business updates, followed by presentations about our partnership, from NHP and Sandwell LHP, as well as an inspiring presentation from one of the young people who was supported by volunteers from GES when she moved into her property.

As we reach the halfway point of 2025, it’s a great moment to reflect on the progress we’ve made together. From welcoming new partnerships and celebrating over 500 young people moving into their homes, to welcoming new Local House Projects and expanding the NHP team, we’ve seen real momentum in our mission to support care leavers.

A message from our CEO

9th July 2025

Young people tell us that the House Project approach helps significantly, but we should never underestimate the enormous challenges they face at such a critical time in their lives. This reality was brought home to us recently with Sue’s decision to swap her working life at NHP for retirement caring for her new granddaughter two days a week. Even though Sue is fully in control of this decision-making process - something our young people often are not - the transition has still been discombobulating; letting go of something she enjoys and that has defined her, and moving on to something that will be incredibly rewarding and joyous.
