Everyone's experience of homelessness is unique
Introducing Homeless Oxfordshire's strategy 2024-2027
Who we are
Homeless Oxfordshire is the county’s largest not-for-profit provider of accommodation for people experiencing homelessness.
We also provide a wide range of specialist support services beyond bricks and mortar.
Our residents are mothers, brothers, aunties, cousins. They are artists, cooks, teachers, veterans. Their lives have been shaped by trauma and disadvantage, and we offer an open door when they need it most.
Our support helps people rebuild their lives.
We also provide a wide range of support services beyond bricks and mortar. We specialise in supporting people who have experienced deep social exclusion, including institutional care and substance use, enabling them to rebuild their lives.
Our impact
2023-2024
Over the last year our work made a difference every day, as the numbers show.
Even the small things had a positive impact on the lives of people experiencing homelessness.
Jim's story
“Probably the most helpful aspects of the support I received was the continuity of care and support – and a persistent key worker, which I needed. I was supported to detox and then referred into a housing project, where I am doing well. I have gratitude and a real sense of purpose to my life now.”
Faye's story
“When I came to Homeless Oxfordshire I was very depressed and my confidence was at rock bottom… At the Step-Down project I had regular one-to-one sessions with my support worker, and the team showed me consistency, which I needed. Slowly I felt more able to let my guard down and began to open up to the team there, which was a big step for me.”
