“Defend the rights of the poor and needy.”

Proverbs 31 : 9

Are You Homeless?

The shelter is only open between November and March.  It did not run in 2020-21, and ran in a smaller way in a hotel in 2021-22

Getting in to the shelter

Sorry, we cannot take in people who just turn up at the shelter, or are recommended by the public. You have to be referred by St Mungo Broadway’s outreach team (020 8840 9653), Acton Homeless Concern (020 8992 5768) or Ealing Soup Kitchen (020 8566 3507 x208). Priority is usually given to people with a local connection to the London Borough of Ealing.
