Tailored support, care and accommodation services for young people

Founders of Main Stay Living, Gavin Heard and James McKenna have many years experience and expertise of working with young people from all different cultures, socio-economic and challenging backgrounds — and are passionate about the city of Liverpool, making a positive difference to young peoples’ lives and the community.

How do we improve everyday life skills, functional skills and those skills where the young person demonstrates strengths or a keen interest?

The answer lies in the experience and expertise of the Main Stay Living team and its numerous partners and connections.

Each individual gets their own support plan, tailored to their unique needs and circumstances, which maps out the actions that they need to take to achieve independent living. We have many resources to draw upon to ensure each young person gets the best support possible.


Main Stay Living supports young people — typically care leavers in the 16-to-18 age group — who have challenging backgrounds; who live with complex support needs; who may be vulnerable or at risk from social exclusion. We — and our partners — have comprehensive experience in providing:

  • A high standard of accommodation

  • Supportive environments

  • Welfare and educational based support

  • Specialist support

  • Interventions

…to enable a successful transition into independent living.
