Sustaining Tenancies

Cathy Neighbourly Lead from Raureka

Sustaining Tenancies is a new initiative that has been rolled out the Ministry of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) with the hope of being the “ambulance at the top of the cliff” instead of the bottom when the tenant ends up homeless.
- Once a tenant has been referred to the service (or self-refers) and they are prepared to commit to a specified time, up to 6 months, The Salvation Army case worker, me, will do an assessment to determine the immediate need and what the main threat that is causing the tenancy to be terminated. For example, if the issue was property damage or property maintenance the immediate need is to repair the damage or clear the section and we have access to contractors who can do this work.
- If the need was financial and rent arrears I could assist them as I am also a Budget Advisor and work through the finances with them. - -Attending WINZ appointments to make sure they are getting all they are entitled to.
As well as connecting them to other local networks as needed.

Message me or email: hastings.cm@salvationarmy.org.nz to make an appointment for assessment or for more information

3D printer job

Julie Neighbourly Lead from Havelock North

Does anyone have a 3D printer, and can make a new handle attachment for my carpet sweeper?
I’ve hunted high and low for the right sized and shaped attachment, with no luck. So, I’m hoping someone could make one for me.
If you possibly could, please message me.
