Sir Julian Hodge Hostel

Sir Julian Hodge Hostel is a 25-bedroom hostel in Cardiff providing shelter and support to single homeless people

The Wallich’s first ever hostel, which opened in 1978, still to this day provides accommodation and support to people with a variety of support needs.

Our support

All residents meet regularly with their own support worker who will:

• Offer personal development
• Access to appropriate services – for example, drug and alcohol support, mental health
• Give advice on seeking permanent accommodation

Each resident has their own living space, for their own privacy.

Everyone has access to shared communal living rooms to build up their social skills and take part in organised activities.

The hostel includes laundry facilities, bathrooms and showers.

As with most of our hostels, we can accommodate dogs so that owners aren’t separated from their pets, which can cause distress.

The Wallich believes that homeless and vulnerable people are individuals with varied and different support needs.

It is proven that their successful recovery can be benefited by living in a Psychologically Informed Environment (PIE).

We want to provide innovative and trauma-informed services, like Sir Julian Hodge Hostel in Cardiff, and match people as best we can can to support which suits them.
