Talk Money Week is an annual campaign to encourage people to have more open conversations about money.

This year’s theme is “It All Counts" where the focus is on realistic manageable actions.
The campaign can provide people with links to support and resources to enable them to take the correct practical steps to improve their confidence talking about money and their own financial situation.

Here at Derventio Housing Trust we encourage and support residents to talk about money through one-to-one support sessions, including guidance with budgeting, debt reduction and saving money.

People are at the heart of what we do here at Derventio Housing Trust.

Which is why we fully support Befriending Week. Running from the 1st to the 7th November Befriending Week is the annual campaign of the incredible impact of befriending and the people that make it happen. This year’s theme is “Supporting each other through meaningful connections.”

At Derventio Housing Trust most of the homes we run are shared, there are many benefits to living in a shared home, especially for people who haven’t lived independently before. Sharing a home can lead to new friendships and mutual support. It is a good way for people to get used to living independently while still having other people around.

We encourage and support friendships between residents, building meaningful connections that help beat loneliness and build new life skills.

At our Growing Lives project participants have the opportunity to interact with staff and other participants with similar lived experience through a range of activities including arts & crafts, cooking, gardening and a bike club where participants can make a bike for themselves.

We also arrange days out with staff and residents for example a recent visit to Derby Museum’s Lara Croft exhibition, Derby Quad, Bennerley Viaduct, The National Arboretum, and Warwickshire Golf & Country Club

This is an interesting read from The National Housing Federation about the future of lived experience. The blog and report make the point that ending homelessness is about making a life - putting a roof over someone’s head is just the first step. It’s also important to note that many people need ongoing support when they get their own place and it’s not always available.
