Finding a home shouldn’t be hard.

If you're navigating impossible waiting lists, being turned down by landlords, stuck in temporary housing, or trapped in situations that feel unsafe — we understand. We’re Precision Acres CIO, a registered charity changing the way housing works for people who need it most — and for those who’ve been told they don’t qualify.

What we do.

We provide safe, decent, and affordable homes to people who are struggling to access housing through mainstream routes — and we do it with support, fairness, and dignity.

Some of our homes are for people with more complex needs, such as:

​

  • Leaving prison or probation

  • Recovering from addiction

  • Fleeing domestic violence or abuse

  • Experiencing rough sleeping or long-term homelessness

  • Living with mental health challenges

  • Transitioning from hostels, care, or unsafe shared accommodation

​

But not all of our homes require a referral or support package. We also offer affordable rented homes for people who:

​

  • Are working on low incomes

  • Face barriers due to bad credit or rent arrears

  • Can’t pass traditional tenant referencing

  • Are just looking for a fair landlord who treats them like a human being

​

We are a charity — but we operate professionally and ethically, providing quality homes with heart.

What kind of homes do we offer?

We offer a range of properties in the Tees Valley area (with plans to expand regionally and nationally), including:

​

  • 1-bedroom flats and studios – Ideal for single people, young adults, or those needing a fresh start

  • 2–3 bedroom family homes – For parents with children, shared tenancies, or couples starting over

  • 4–5 bedroom larger homes – For bigger families or bespoke referrals (e.g. mother & baby units, multigenerational households, or supported shared living)

​

All homes are:

​

  • Safe, well-maintained, and compliant with housing standards

  • Fully or part-furnished depending on your circumstances

  • Affordable — priced within Local Housing Allowance or agreed capped rent levels

  • Accessible where possible (we work with adaptations and partner services)

  • Near transport, schools, GP surgeries, recovery services, and employment hubs

​

We also design community spaces within our housing where possible — for shared gardens, social events, or tenant-led projects.

What makes us different.

Image4_Comp.jpg

We are not a letting agent. We are not a profit-driven landlord. We are a registered charity with a mission to make housing fair, supportive, and stable.

Our approach is wraparound — meaning housing is just the beginning.

​

Depending on your situation, we can offer:

​

  • One-to-one support (housing, budgeting, mental health, life skills)

  • Addiction recovery support or referral pathways

  • Employment and skills coaching

  • Peer mentoring

  • Help furnishing your home

  • Family or relationship mediation

  • Link-ups to food, financial or social services

​

You won’t just get a tenancy — you’ll get the tools and support to keep it.

Support in your pocket.

BeKindd.com

Every eligible tenant receives access to BeKindd, our wellbeing app built in partnership with ReallyGoodThings Ltd. It helps you:

​

  • Check in with your mood or stress daily

  • Get reminders for appointments or medication

  • Receive mental health tips and personalised encouragement

  • Access digital guides to budgeting, cooking, managing anxiety and more

  • Discreetly alert your support team if you’re struggling

​

BeKindd is your digital safety net, available 24/7 — especially for people in recovery, newly housed, or going through major change.

Who can apply.

We accept:

​

  • Self-referrals (you apply directly)

  • Professional referrals from probation, social workers, housing officers, GPs, rehab centres, women’s shelters, and more

  • Family or community organisation referrals

​

We aim to prioritise people in greatest need, but we always balance our housing portfolio — some homes are available on a first-come, first-served basis for low-income tenants without support needs.

​

We believe in building mixed, stable, healthy communities.

Every application is looked at individually. We consider:

​

  • Housing need and urgency

  • Location and property suitability

  • Your ability to sustain a tenancy (with or without help)

  • Whether you need supported or general housing

  • Compatibility with available units and existing tenants (where shared)

​

We don’t automatically exclude people with:

​

  • Criminal convictions

  • Past evictions

  • Mental health diagnoses

  • Zero hours work

  • Benefits claims

  • No fixed address
