Simon On The Streets provides emotional and practical support for people with complex needs who cannot or will not access other services. Within that group it focuses on people who are homeless and rootless, especially those with issues related to rough sleeping.

Story

We support anyone who is at risk of being homeless. The people we work with are often hidden and isolated. As we're an independent charity, we can provide unlimited support for as long as a person needs it. This includes support around accessing accommodation, linking into primary healthcare for physical and mental health, or working with addiction services and trauma informed care specialists. We understand that every person facing homelessness has different needs and that it takes time to create a real change. We aim to provide person-centred support to help individuals achieve their goals, however long that may take. We understand emotional support is valuable and that it helps to underpin any practical support given.
