What we do
We extend compassionate and practical support to those struggling with the causes and effects of homelessness and trauma. We offer a listening ear and qualified counselling from experienced advisors, but believe very much in providing a ‘hand-up’ not just a ‘hand out.’ Our mission is to empower everyone who comes to us to realise their full potential and create a brighter future.
