to Thrive
Shared Housing
Sheltered Living
Choice is committed to promoting inclusive,
welcoming, and diverse communities
through the continued delivery of the
Together: Building United Communities
(T:BUC) ‘Housing for All’ shared housing
programme.
Our sheltered living schemes offer more than
just a place to live—they provide a vibrant,
supportive environment where tenants can
thrive. At Choice, we believe in fostering a
strong community spirit and ensuring that
every tenant feels valued and cared for.
Central to the success of these initiatives
is Choice’s strong partnership approach,
working collaboratively with local authorities,
statutory bodies and community and
voluntary organisations. This multi-agency
model is instrumental in achieving the
programme’s core outcomes: improving
good relations, promoting community
integration and delivering high-quality
shared housing across Northern Ireland.
A key benefit of sheltered living is the
provision of our scheme co-ordinators
and 24-hour emergency assistance.
Social activities and contact with other
residents enable sheltered living tenants
to maintain an active social life even as life
circumstances change.
As a key partner in a new Peace Plus
initiative, we are contributing to a sectorwide peacebuilding funding bid to support
the continued growth of shared housing.
We remain committed to engaging in
future peace funding models that enhance
community cohesion through integrated
living.
We were delighted to celebrate a number of
special anniversaries at our sheltered living
schemes over the last year demonstrating
our commitment to developing quality
and affordable housing that contributes to
sustainable and cohesive communities.
