Tenancy Support is delivered by the Light for Life Tenancy Support Worker, who provides advice, guidance and support to people who are moving into a new tenancy supported by a Bond. If you have been accommodated using the Bond Scheme you will automatically be allocated a support worker to enable you to settle into your new tenancy.

• Deal with other issues that have led to your present circumstances
• Help you to feel more motivated and confident
• Access training, education or employment

Your tenancy support worker will work with you in a friendly, professional and confidential way and will respect your views and take them seriously.
