Octavia House
In the lounge
Octavia House is a hostel in South Leeds and provides intensive rehabilitation to clients with mental health problems. We work with men and women over the ages of 18. There are 4 places for clients staying for a maximum of 8 months and 2 places used for relapse prevention (respite) placements.
In the garden
A team of Mental Health Support Workers staff the hostel 24 hours a day with one worker on Sleep-In duty overnight. The team supports clients to develop their skills in managing their mental health and in developing their life skills so that they may live more independently.
The hostel provides a structure to the day to help clients develop a routine and focus. The day starts with a community meeting involving all clients and they are actively encouraged to become involved in every aspect of running the house and in their individual care.
