Resettlement in Haringey
Moving Forward programme
A stable place to live and structured support to help people transition from prison back into the communities of Haringey.

Co-commissioned by Haringey Council and the National Probation Service.
The programme's objectives
Stability today.
A foundation for tomorrow.
Leaving prison involves more than finding somewhere to stay. Moving Forward brings accommodation, individual planning and partnership working together to support resettlement.
Individual planning
Proactively assess each person's needs and develop clearly documented support and risk management plans, focused on meaningful outcomes.
Connected services
Work with statutory agencies to maintain engagement with services and support compliance with statutory orders and community orders.
From transition to independence
A place to settle.
Space to plan ahead.
ARKRS provides transition housing alongside Moving Forward support. This gives service users a stable base while they adjust to life outside prison.
The programme aims to support move-on provision for long-term, sustainable accommodation. The focus is not only on the immediate transition, but on what comes next.
12 to 18 months of accommodation and support
Time to work towards a more sustainable next chapter in the community.

Life skills & resettlement
Making everyday progress feel possible.
Resettlement can bring practical challenges as well as new opportunities. Developing life skills means turning longer-term goals into manageable everyday actions.
Keeping appointments, establishing a routine and knowing when to ask for help can all contribute to greater independence. An individual support plan keeps the focus on the needs and outcomes that matter to each person.
Moving Forward is part of our wider work supporting people after prison through accommodation, mentoring and community support.
