Are we the right fit for you?

At SHP, our values underpin everything that we do, from the services and standards we strive to provide for our clients, but also how we work together, and the decision making from the very top and throughout the organisation. We work toward a society in which everyone has a place to call home and the chance to lead a fulfilling life, and that has never been more challenging, and more important than now.

Clients hold the key
As an organisation founded by people experiencing homelessness, we believe in the fundamental right of every individual to take control of their lives. Tailoring our support to their needs and aspirations, we work with people to build their capacity for self-determination, so that they can shape their own futures.

We see our clients as people, not problems. As well as offering practical support, we believe it’s essential to give people the opportunity to discover a sense of purpose, to grow in confidence, express themselves and build meaningful relationships.

A voice for change
We are committed to tackling the underlying causes of homelessness and social exclusion, and we will use what we learn to make the case for prevention and systemic change. We are also passionate about promoting the voices of people who have been forced into homelessness, whose stories often go unheard.

We value the contribution of all staff and volunteers and we are a diverse organisation that pulls together, in a spirit of mutual trust and co-operation. We encourage creativity and new ideas, prizing innovation as a means of achieving our mission.
