Work and Learning: A poor education is often a contributing factor to homelessness, while unmet physical and mental health needs can seriously compromise a person's employability.

St Mungo's work and learning services help people to overcome these barriers through education, vocational training, help with finding employment and engaging in meaningful activities - all of which play a key role in recovery from homelessness and are fundamental to our work.
