The scheme was purpose-built by the Touchstone Housing Association to serve the needs of young adults in Coventry and Warwickshire who would benefit from living in a more stable domestic environment. It will help young people get jobs and assist them in making the transition to an independent life.
Facilities at the Foyer, which was opened by Coventry's Lord Mayor, Ken Taylor (pictured), include an IT centre, a training kitchen and recreation rooms.
Principal sponsors and partners for the scheme are Touchstone, development agency Advantage West Midlands, the European Regional Development Fund, Coventry City Council, the Housing Corporation and Peugeot Motor.
