17.01.2022 Last year, Homes for Homes granted funding to Havelock Housing for a project in Canberra that provides affordable, secure and long-term tenancies to matched pairs of older women, who often have backgrounds of family violence. Speaking to one of the tenants earlier this year, she expressed how grateful she was to have a safe place to live and enjoy freedoms that she simply didn't have before. "I enjoy being able to decorate my own house, move things around and have it set up h...ow I want it. I can watch TV and cook when I want, I can even have guests! I was told I would have to wait 10 years to get proper social housing but in less than 2 years, Havelock housing helped me get one, and the house is very nice and peaceful. I have done some gardeningflowers and a lot of tomatoes. They’re massive! I give the extras to my neighbours and friends." It is beautiful to see how this house has become a home. #EveryHomeHelps.
