In this episode Jean Templeton Chief Executive of St Basils, a charity supporting young people in the West Midlands, shares how they have developed an innovative housing model to support young people who are working. She explains the successes and challenges of getting this set up and how they have managed to develop housing that is a truly affordable for young people on apprenticeships. Jean discusses how this model could be replicated in other areas.
St Basils is both a Charity and a Housing Association with a track record of over 50 years of providing a holistic range of accommodation and support services to young people aged 16-25 who are homeless, vulnerable or at risk in the West Midlands. We believe that homelessness should not be part of growing up. We want all young people to feel cared about, to have trusted support, somewhere safe, suitable, and affordable to live that enables them to learn and work. Links to our website www.stbasils.org.uk

Lisa Brown became a property investor after a long nursing career. She initially developed heritage properties and then a chance encounter led her to discover supported living. She realized this was a powerful way to invest in property while creating homes for people with a support need. Lisa set about discovering why property investors struggle to let their properties to supported living providers and why providers struggle to find property to let. She has been educating people, raising awareness and working on solutions to this problem ever since. Lisa is the host of the Supported Living Property Podcast and YouTube channel and formed The Supported Living Property Facebook Group.
Lisa is founder of The Supported Living Property Network, a place for property investors and supported living providers to connect, build relationships and communicate about property they have available and/or need. Membership includes access to training courses, monthly training events and networking events and access to The Supported Living Property Network Conference.
