Who we are

We're a homeless charity based in Leeds and Bradford

Our services are delivered on an outreach basis directly on the streets across both areas. This ensures we are supporting individuals who are homeless and may not be engaging with other services. We deliver our outreach during the day but also in the evening and in the early hours of the morning when many of the most vulnerable are struggling. 

What we do

We support the unsupported

We recognise that emotional support has a high-value and understand that building a quality relationship with our clients will underpin any support given. This emotional support evolves over time to underpin more practical activity around advocacy and liaison with other, specialist services. We want to support an individual to achieve their own goals and aspirations whatever they may be.

Our stories

Our core values we think are vital to our way of work

  1. Empathetic

      We offer emotional support for its own sake. We aim to understand our clients feelings, thoughts and aspirations, and support them in their journey.  

  2. Non Judgmental

     We respect and value each person we work with, seeing ourselves as equals, empowering them to make positive change in their own lives.  

  3. Passionate

    We raise awareness of the problems faced by homeless people on the streets and advocate for our clients.  

  4. Professional

     We do everything we can to achieve the best possible outcomes for our clients and provide support for the long term. We don't give up on people.
