Agency managed hostel services


Our Agency Services team work with managing agents who deliver services to tenants in different supported housing projects. Some of these projects are shared hostels, some are care homes and others are self-contained flats and houses.

Our managing agents provide housing management and support services on our behalf, while we provide the maintenance service and work closely with our managing agents to ensure delivery of appropriate services to the tenants.


While the services at the projects are delivered by managing agents, the tenants all receive PCHA tenancies. We provide permanent, general needs accommodation to many tenants once they are able to live independently.


We work closely with our partner organisations (pdf, 12.3Kb) who manage PCHA-owned supported schemes on our behalf. In handing the management reigns to experienced and dedicated specialists, we ensure that vulnerable tenants in these schemes receive the very highest standard of support.


PCHA is part of the SHIP (Supported Housing in Partnership) group of housing associations working together to develop best practise and quality services.
