Our impact
St Mungo’s works to ensure that everyone has a place to call home and can fulfil their hopes and ambitions.
What we do
We provide support to people to prevent them from becoming homeless or to help them recover from homelessness. We do this by building relationships with communities and the wider public to increase understanding and empathy of homelessness and advocating for policy change.
During the Pandemic
We played a key role in ensuring that anyone who was sleeping on the streets during the Covid-19 pandemic was immediately provided with safe and secure accommodation.
Experiences of recovery
“Homelessness can happen to anyone. All it takes is for one thing to go wrong, then it’s game over and all of your bridges have fallen down.”
After losing his job and going through a relationship breakdown, Paul found himself living on the streets. But last year, he was offered a place in a St Mungo’s hostel, where he found the support he needed to make a fresh start.

Experiences of recovery
“I’ve been there (new flat) for about a year now and I’m really happy – I’ve got my own front door, it’s private and my landlord’s lovely.”
