The best definition of what a Foyer is comes from The Foyer Federation:
"All young people need a home, support and a springboard into independent living, learning and work. Not everyone is lucky enough to get those things. Foyers fill the gap for those who don't"
Trident has several foyers where accommodation for 16 to 25 year-olds is integrated with training, job search and personal support. It's all about recognising chances and seizing opportunities. It's about motivation and breaking out of the "no home, no job, no home" cycle.
A foyer is not a hostel, it is a bridge that takes young people from dependence to independence.
