Sheltered housing for women and children

Women of the Armed Forces community may find themselves without somewhere to live or require a place of safety. That's why we’ve got our Stepping Stone Home.

It's like a home for me. The staff have done so much to help me.

- Janet, Resident

SSAFA's Stepping Stone home provides a comfortable, secure and female-only place to stay for as long as you need to get back on your feet. From our clean and well-maintained communal spaces and garden to private areas for each resident to make their own, we want our guests to feel like they are in a home from home.

Our experienced Stepping Stone home staff are ready to make your stay as relaxing and comfortable as possible, and are constantly on hand to provide someone to listen to your worries, or provide advice and guidance - whether you plan to move on or reconcile your previous relationship.
