To deliver high‑quality supported housing that provides safety, consistency, and personalised guidance, helping young people build the skills and resilience they need for adulthood.
The Principles That Guide Everything We Do

Independence Building
We help young people develop practical skills, emotional resilience, and the confidence needed to move forward independently.
How Platform Up Began
Platform Up began in 2017 with a clear purpose: to provide young people with safe, stable homes and the consistent support they often lacked elsewhere. What started as a small project has grown into a dedicated service shaped by experience, compassion, and a belief that every young person deserves the chance to build a confident, independent future.
