West Sussex Peer Support

Ti-ps is our Peer Support Service in West Sussex. We run drop ins in Crawley, Horsham, Chichester and Shoreham for existing clients of our Independent Living Schemes.

 

Our aim is to create a sociable environment to share experiences of living independently, promoting tenancy skills and building confidence and knowledge to access local communities and services. As well as providing a stepping stone for existing clients who no longer require home visits we can offer pre-tenancy support in preparation for moving into a first time tenancy.

 

What clients value about Ti-ps:

“With Ti-ps I am in control of what I need to do, independently”

“Makes life less daunting”

“My life is enriched because of the group and support I receive”

 

Support is co-ordinated by paid employees and trained peer support volunteers who are current or former clients or external volunteers with experience to share.
