Our Solas service in Oban has been busy creating a Christmas window display. Well done to Christopher for the brilliant artwork — a lovely bit of festive creativity. #Christmas #Oban

When people move on from supported accommodation, they often walk into an empty flat.

No bedding. No cookware. No curtains. That’s why Blue Triangle provides Moving On Packs that make a new tenancy feel like home.

At Blue Triangle, trauma-informed support means recognising the impact of past experiences and responding with kindness, patience and respect. It’s about creating safe spaces, building trust, and helping people rebuild their lives in a way that feels right for them.

#TraumaInformed

This #RecoveryMonth we stand with people on their recovery journey.

Almost 1 in 5 of the people we support face drug or alcohol challenges — but with the right support, change is always possible. 💙

#RecoveryMonth #Homelessness #AddictionRecovery #StigmaFree #TraumaInformedCare

We joined the Overdose Awareness Day at Kay Park, #Kilmarnock this weekend. An uplifting day of community, recovery stories and solidarity. Great to connect and share more about our recovery housing service.

At Chalmers Court in Ayr, Olivia and Georgie worked with staff to bring a splash of colour to the service. This new gallery wall — complete with a Blue Triangle — will soon showcase artwork from the people we support.

Thanks to Stacy from @bluetriangleha.bsky.social for welcoming me to their residential community in Grangemouth today.

Blue Triangle empower young people to thrive by providing safe secure housing, trauma informed psychological support and help young people progress towards their own tenancy.

Jack had 11 failed tenancies in 8 years.
People saw him as difficult.
We took time to listen.

900+ hours later: he’s housed, in recovery, and volunteering.

💬 “I get listened to. I’m not just taking up space.”

We loved this poem by Raymond, a Support Worker in our Sauchiehall Street service 💙
He wrote and performed it at our 50th event — a powerful tribute to the care, creativity and commitment of our staff across Scotland. Here’s to the next 50. #BlueTriangle50 #HomelessnessScotland

A photograph of a school bell, with several partial quotes surrounding it as if they're being made by the bell itself. There's text saying "The summer holidays are not a break for the 10,360 children stuck in temporary accommodation"

☀️ The summer holidays should be a fun and exciting time for a child, but with 10,360 children in Scotland living in unsuitable temporary accommodation, for them it means more time in a space they don't feel safe. 🚫

Join us in our fight against the #HousingEmergency. Let's fight for justice ✊
