Women’s Homelessness

Every woman deserves a place to call home and a life free from violence and abuse. But the reality is that women experiencing homelessness are at constant risk of violence, abuse and exploitation.

To stay safe, women often stay hidden. Hidden from the dangers of being visible on the streets, but also hidden from the outreach and homelessness services they desperately need and deserve.

We believe that homelessness is an experience, not a forever, and with the right approach, it can be ended. Women need services designed just for them, and we are calling for change.

As an organisation, we run five women-only services in London, partner with leading homelessness and VAWGs organisations to develop new initiatives, and influence local authorities and service commissioners to develop and commission more gender-informed services.
