Vadimir's Story
Jim arrived anxious and worn down by homelessness, unsure of what came next. Calm nights, clean clothes and respectful support at the shelter gave him space to breathe, rebuild confidence and begin moving forward again with hope, dignity and stability.
Ongoing work
Each guest is offered support to establish benefits, appropriate services, access to a GP and help finding accommodation.
Every person’s circumstances are different and FirmFoundation work creatively and imaginatively to give each person the best opportunity to live independently for the long term.
We recognise that homelessness is an all-year-round issue and that through genuine relationships we are able to support those in need, even after the shelter closes.
