About us
Our vision is that no one will sleep on the streets in South East London
Our approach to achieving our vision is to provide a friendly open door for anyone that is sleeping on the streets or at risk of sleeping on the streets so that we can help people to help themselves escape from homelessness.
We believe that sleeping rough should be rare, fleeting and never repeated. We have three missions:
- If you’re at risk of sleeping on the street, we’ll stop it happening
- If you’re sleeping on the street, we’ll help you to quickly find a home
- If you’ve previously slept on the street, we’ll help you to stay in your new home
In everything we do, we demonstrate our values:
Inclusive: We are welcoming and supportive.
Respectful: We respect each other and celebrate diversity so that everyone can give their best.
Empowering: We encourage people to take personal responsibility for making positive changes in their lives by providing opportunities, developing their talents, and helping to build their confidence and self esteem.
Partnership: We recognise the importance of working collaboratively with people who come to the centre to design, deliver and evaluate our services.
Inspiring: We all inspire one another to discover our purpose and reach our full potential, celebrating our achievements and positive steps forward.
