Empowering Independence: Support and Keywork Sessions at New Ethos Nottingham


At New Ethos Nottingham, we strive to empower our residents to transition from semi-independent living to fully independent lives in their own homes. As a semi-independent hostel, our weekly support and keywork sessions are central to our mission of fostering independence and personal growth.


These sessions are not just about ticking boxes; they’re about creating real change in the lives of our residents by offering practical assistance and guidance. Here’s how we’re making a difference:


What Happens in Our Keywork Sessions?


Our tailored keywork sessions focus on individual needs, ensuring residents are supported in their journey toward independence. Key activities include:

  • HomeLink Applications: Assisting residents with the HomeLink housing system to secure permanent accommodation.

  • Third-Party Liaison: Communicating with probation officers, general practitioners, and other support organizations to ensure residents receive the help they need.

  • ID Acquisition: Guiding residents through the process of obtaining UK-standard identification like passports or driver’s licenses.

  • Healthcare Registration: Helping residents register with local GPs and dentists to access essential medical services.

  • Benefits and DWP Support: Offering assistance with Universal Credit, ESA, or PIP claims, and accompanying residents to DWP appointments.

  • Career and Training Advice: Connecting residents to vocational training programs, education pathways, and job opportunities.


Our Residents: Who We Support


New Ethos Nottingham serves individuals aged 21-50 who may be ex-offenders, homeless, or facing other challenges. Many of our residents are transitioning from difficult circumstances and require a structured environment to regain stability.

How We Stand Out


By offering a holistic approach, we differ from other semi-independent accommodations. Competitors often emphasize housing alone, but at New Ethos Nottingham, we integrate housing with robust support systems.

Some hostels focus narrowly on referrals or temporary support; however, we aim to build long-term self-sufficiency. This is reflected in our proactive collaboration with organizations like:


  • Local Employment Agencies

  • Health and Wellbeing Charities

  • Educational Providers


The Importance of Keywork in Semi-Independent Living


Why do keywork sessions matter? These one-on-one interactions foster trust and ensure residents are on track to achieving their personal goals. Consistent guidance helps them overcome barriers such as:

  • Lack of documentation

  • Employment challenges

  • Poor health management


Why Choose New Ethos Nottingham?
