Each year here at TLA, we support over 1200 of the most vulnerable people in West
Yorkshire, including young people, families and children. We work with rough sleepers,
the hidden homeless and those who are at risk of losing their tenancies. Helping them
off the streets and into our intensive support hostels, supporting them to become ready
to move into our supported accommodation, or to keep the homes they are in. We do
this by providing supported accommodation, floating support, emergency 24-hour
accommodation, small group homes, shared houses and single and family tenancies in
the community.
Our services include outreach street support for people sleeping rough
and supported accommodation for people living with drug and alcohol dependence,
mental and physical ill-health, criminal justice involvement and risk of domestic abuse.
The Board is now seeking Trustees for the Board - a vital governance role at the heart of
the organisation’s mission. The successful candidates will ensure good organisational
decision making and have the ability to understand complexity identifying central
issues needing Board discussion.
This is an exciting opportunity to make a real difference to the local community and
support vulnerable and homeless people supported by TLA.
