HomelessWise

Training for businesses to support people experiencing homelessness.

What is HomelessWise?

St Mungo’s HomelessWise service provides specialist homelessness training, support and guidance for the business community, to help end rough sleeping for good.

Businesses have told us that they want to help, but need expert guidance on how to approach this sensitive issue.

HomelessWise gives teams a better understanding of homelessness. This knowledge
empowers staff to make informed decisions, so they can practically respond to instances of street homelessness.

This can reduce risk to your staff, customers and brand, as well as people who are experiencing homelessness.

We have delivered training to businesses including Nationwide Building Society, Network Rail and Bloomberg.
