Simon on the Streets

We're an independent charity in West Yorkshire helping the homeless and vulnerable. We recognise that emotional support has a high-value and understand that building a quality relationship with clients will underpin any support given. This emotional support evolves over time to underpin practical support around advocacy and accessing specialist services. Our teams in Leeds and Bradford work with individuals who are homeless and rough sleeping; often hidden and isolated. We recognise that working towards sustainable positive change may be a long, rocky road and that along the way there will be many setbacks. When needed we will continue to work with an individual if they move into accommodation as they may struggle with the transition from homelessness to being a tenant. All our services are delivered on an outreach basis directly on the streets, ensuring that we are supporting those individuals who are homeless and may not be engaging with other services.
