Vale of Glamorgan Council Homelessness Service Directory Vale of Glamorgan Council Homelessness Service Directory May 2004 Page 2 INTRODUCTION The service directory has been developed as part of the development of the Vale of Glamorgan Homelessness Strategy project. The document was first produced in February 2004, and was based upon information provided to the consultants by each organisation, that set out the services they provided at the time, how they can be accessed and who they are targeted at. The directory will be updated every six months by officers of the Council, to ensure that the information contained in the document is up to date and retains its accuracy. The directory has been divided into the following sections: · Accommodation · Information and advice · Support · Access to accommodation services · Prevention services · Other services and resources · National telephone advice lines and web-based sources of information and advice Each section will commence with a brief introduction that explains the organisation of entries in each section. Entries within each section are in alphabetical order of organisation name. Page 3 ACCOMMODATION Introduction This section is unsurprisingly one of the largest. The section lists the housing provided by the council, housing associations and voluntary organisations that own and manage housing in the Vale of Glamorgan. The directory does not provide details of any private landlords who own and manage stock in the Vale of Glamorgan. The best sources of information are Llamau and Home Access The range of housing provided by organisations in the Vale of Glamorgan is quite extensive and therefore entries have been sub divided into the following three groups: · permanent housing · non-permanent housing · temporary housing Page 4 PERMANENT HOUSING Name of Agency Hafod Housing Association Ltd Address West Area - 14/18 Queen Street Bridgend CF31 1HX Telephone 01656 655045 Fax 01656 669707 e-mail [email protected] Website Summary of service Over 400 General Needs properties located mainly in Barry, Penarth, and Rhoose with some scattered in the rural Vale, available for Single Person and Fami- lies on long-term lettings.

  • Vale of Glamorgan Profile (Final Version at March 2017)
    A profile of the Vale of Glamorgan The Vale of Glamorgan is a diverse and beautiful part of Wales. The county is characterised by rolling countryside, coastal communities, busy towns and rural villages but also includes Cardiff Airport, a variety of industry and businesses and Wales’s largest town. The area benefits from good road and rail links and is well placed within the region as an area for employment as a visitor destination and a place to live. The map below shows some key facts about the Vale of Glamorgan. There are however areas of poverty and deprivation and partners are working with local communities to ensure that the needs of different communities are understood and are met, so that all residents can look forward to a bright future. Our population The population of the Vale of Glamorgan as per 2015 mid-year estimates based on 2011 Census data was just under 128,000. Of these, approximately 51% are female and 49% male. The Vale has a similar age profile of population as the Welsh average with 18.5% of the population aged 0-15, 61.1% aged 16-64 and 20.4% aged 65+. Population projections estimate that by 2036 the population aged 0-15 and aged 16-64 will decrease. The Vale also has an ageing population with the number of people aged 65+ predicted to significantly increase and be above the Welsh average. 1 Currently, the percentage of the Vale’s population reporting activity limitations due to a disability is one of the lowest in Wales.
