HAWES STREET HOUSING

Creating a nurturing community which fosters a sense of pride, stability, and opportunity.

Who we are

At Saltbox, we believe that everyone deserves a place they can proudly call home. In July 2023, we became the parent company for Hawes Street Housing, a group of 28, now 29 properties which provide good quality, well-maintained  homes for our tenants.

Since taking over the properties we have worked hard to invest in bringing them up to a high standard as we believe that a well-maintained property fosters a sense of pride and stability, which is crucial for our tenants’ overall wellbeing and creates a positive environment that promotes healing and growth.

Tenants of Hawes Street Housing have access to the various services offered within our Carelink stable, including help with managing their finances, advice on accessing financial benefits, accessing mental health support, help with applying for employment, and personal development programs. 

For many of our tenants, their time with us may be brief as they work to regain their independence; however, for others facing more complex challenges, their stay may extend longer. Regardless of the duration, we want to ensure that each individual feels safe, comfortable, and valued in their living environment. Ultimately, our mission is to create a nurturing community where everyone has the opportunity to thrive.
