‘Move-on’ housing provides that much needed step towards independent living.

Turning Tides provides a range of homeless support services in West Sussex, covering Adur and Worthing, Littlehampton, Horsham District and Mid Sussex. Every year they accommodate over 200 homeless people in our 20+ properties across the county.
They deliver effective and sustainable services, striving to achieve complete pathways out of homelessness. They are constantly developing and equipping ourselves with the range of options that meet the diverse needs of our clients – to ensure they can fully empower them to achieve sustainable fulfilling lives.
Fundamental to their approach within all the services they offer, is the understanding that every client has their own unique set of circumstances. They are committed to being led by the expertise of our clients and communities.
They collaborate with local authorities, partner agencies and external providers to ensure our approach is joined up and inclusive within systems such as housing, health, social care, substance misuse and criminal justice.
