Housing people because EVERYONE deserves to have a place they can call home.
About Good Life Living
GOOD LIFE LIVING CIC is a London based non-profit organisation specialising in exempt housing provision under the specified accommodation clause of housing legislation, but we don’t stop at simply providing shelter we create homes that offer safety, dignity, and opportunity.
We specialise and focus on supporting individuals who are rough sleeping, living with mental health or learning disabilities. Our housing options are designed to empower, offering choice and comfort in environments that promote wellbeing. We work closely with partners across housing, commissioning, and care sectors to ensure our services align with community needs and our charitable mission.

OUR STORY
GOOD LIFE LIVING CIC was born out of a deep commitment to changing lives. Across our directors and partners, we bring over thirty years of experience working in residential care for individuals with mental health challenges and learning disabilities. Through this work, we’ve seen the long and difficult journeys many people face before reaching care—including periods of homelessness.
Just before the birth of GLL, our director who was working in residential care had noticed a recurring pattern: many individuals entering residential care had experienced homelessness at some point. It became clear that the most effective moment to intervene was earlier, when someone was rough sleeping but still reachable with the right support. By offering housing and a little guidance at that critical juncture, we could prevent further decline and help people reclaim stability before their situation worsened.
OUR SERVICES
At our supported living service, your health, safety, and independence are our top priorities. That’s why we work hand-in-hand with your GP, psychiatric specialists, and a full multidisciplinary team to build a recovery plan that’s tailored to you. Whether you're managing mental health challenges, physical conditions, or simply need extra support, we make sure every part of your care is connected and coordinated.
Through regular communication with healthcare professionals and support staff, we create a safe and structured pathway back to independent living. From medication management to emotional wellbeing and daily routines, we’re here to guide you every step of the way—so you can move forward with confidence.
Who Can Use This Service and How Much Does It Cost
Our service is open to anyone currently rough sleeping or receiving social care support. We aim to make access as seamless and affordable as possible.
All rent costs are covered for individuals who meet the eligibility criteria for housing benefit. There is a weekly service charge of £35, which helps cover the support services we provide. We also assist tenants in applying for benefits to ensure this cost is manageable, removing barriers to safe and supported living. Most individuals are surprised to know that they can be helped by us so please contact us to see if you are eligible!
