Supported Housing: Jigginstown Manor
Jigginstown Manor gives young people facing homelessness a stable home, practical support, and a real path forward. Based in Naas, Co. Kildare, it serves as a foundation for the youth to transition to an independent life.

Jigginstown Manor is a transitional housing project in Naas, Co. Kildare, run by Tiglin in partnership with Homeless Care CLG. It supports young adults aged approximately 18 to 25 who are experiencing homelessness or at serious risk of it.
The facility offers 12 purpose-built studio apartments, self-contained units designed to give residents their own space while building the skills and confidence to live independently. A central shared house supports community life and on-site management.
The programme is built around a simple idea: stable housing is the starting point. Jigginstown Manor works with each resident individually to address what's keeping them from sustained independence.
