Ending homelessness, rebuilding lives

Annual Review 2022-23

At St Mungo’s we continue to work tirelessly to end homelessness and change lives for the better.

In 2022-23, we supported 28,359 people who were homeless, or at risk of homelessness.

On average, we provided 2,735 people with housing and support on any given night.

This year, the cost of living crisis has put Tracy’s mental and physical health and risk. As of March 2022, 37,260 households were at risk of becoming homeless.

This is 15% more than in 2021.

We are one of the only providers to accept pets in our services.
Basam became homeless in 2022 because of a rogue landlord. After five weeks sleeping rough, our outreach team supported him into accommodation. With the guidance of our Employment Support services, he has taken a role as a support worker.

“St Mungo’s gave me the opportunity to help myself. There is hope, a chance, a blessing. They do care and they are out there”.
In freezing weather, our outreach teams work harder than ever to bring people like Martin off the streets and into safety.

The Severe Weather Emergency Protocol (SWEP) is an emergency response to help get people off the streets immediately during periods of extreme weather. Last year we supported 568 people through our SWEP provision.
After facing the dangers of sleeping rough, Sophia moved into St Mungo’s supported accommodation.

“After I was released from a stay in prison, a St Mungo’s worker called me. She said ‘we got a place for you, you’re safe now’. That’s what they do, they keep people safe”.

In 2022 we supported 1,785 women and non-binary people off the streets and into safe accommodation.
Supported by our Recovery College, Wayne documents his experiences of homelessness using photography.

“I think people have become numb to seeing other human beings sleeping on the streets because it’s so common. I hope that when someone views my work, they can remind themselves to be mindful towards their fellow human beings”.
After experiencing homelessness when she was growing up, Shannel now works in one of our supported accommodation services.

“I’m so grateful to St Mungo’s for giving me the opportunity to work in this role. It allows me to apply my own lived experience of homelessness to help others. That’s what inspires me to keep going”.
